Authorized representative of the manufacturer in the European Union.

If the manufacturer of the product is located outside the European Union, EU Directives and Regulations governing CE marking require the presence of an Authorized Representative in the EU.

One of the most important responsibilities of the Authorised Representative is to maintain the technical file and liaise with the supervisory authorities.

Technical documentation is all documentation that describes, explains or instructs on the use, maintenance and design of a product. This includes user manuals, installation instructions, maintenance instructions, and disposal instructions.

Technical documentation is a key part of any product, as it provides users and supervisory authorities with the necessary information.

For users, technical documentation provides clear and easy-to-understand instructions for using the product, which improves the user experience and reduces the likelihood of errors. For manufacturers, technical documentation provides the ability to track the compliance of their products with EU requirements in real time.

Technical documentation can take many different forms, each designed for its own purpose. One of the most common forms is user manuals, which contain detailed instructions on how to use the product. Online documentation is becoming increasingly popular because it is easy to update and accessible to users at any time.

The technical file must be up to date; the product may change, component suppliers may change, technology may change, and standards and documentation must reflect these changes. This requires close cooperation between the manufacturer and the Authorised Representative.
