The cost of product certification in the European Union. The cost of CE marking.

The cost of certifying products for the European Union market with the right to affix the CE marking depends on the intended use, applicable legislation, applicable standards, and classification. Based on the relevant product information, certification experts can specify the costs and procedures required to certify your device.

If you contact a European Union notified body directly, you will already save on the cost of intermediary services. We accept payments in any currency!

If you decide to use the services of a notified body or if the applicable requirements for your product require an independent assessment by a notified body, you must pay the notified body for its services. The cost depends on which certification procedure applies to your product, the complexity of the product, etc.

In many cases, CE directives offer two or more certification procedures that can be used. The costs associated with one procedure or another may vary, and this is therefore one aspect to keep in mind.

Certification (conformity assessment) offers companies many advantages.

Compliance with regulatory requirements and obtaining certificates, in the understanding of serious manufacturers, are not additional costs, but are part of the basic budget, because without them it is impossible to enter the European Union market.

The cost of conformity assessment varies depending on the type of product and the scope of the assessment. The more information you provide to our staff with a description of the product and its intended use, the easier it will be to respond to your request.

Product certification brings in more profit than it costs, as it increases consumer confidence, at a minimum, and ultimately has a positive impact on the value of your company.

Failure to obtain conformity assessment may result in denial of insurance claims, even if not required by law. This can lead to costly legal expenses.

Over the years, we have accumulated extensive European-level experience in conformity assessment, enabling us to offer incredibly efficient and fast results.
