CE Marking Certification in India
CE marking is mandatory if you want to export products — machinery, electronics, medical devices, toys, PPE — to the European Economic Area. It's not an ISO certification in the strict sense, but a self-declaration (or notified-body attestation) that your product meets EU safety, health and environmental requirements. We help Indian manufacturers get CE-marked without trial-and-error with European labs.
What is CE Marking?
CE marking is a mandatory conformity assessment for products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA). It indicates that a product complies with the relevant European Union health, safety, and environmental protection directives and regulations. For Indian manufacturers and exporters, CE marking is essential for accessing the lucrative European market, which remains one of India's largest trading partners with over €120 billion in annual trade.

CE Marking Certification Process
1. EU Directive Identification
Our CE marking experts identify all applicable EU directives and regulations for your product. We assess your product's design, materials, and intended use to determine the specific conformity assessment route required — from self-declaration to full Notified Body certification.
2. Technical Documentation & Testing
We prepare the technical construction file (TCF) including product specifications, risk assessments, design drawings, test reports, and compliance evidence. We coordinate testing at accredited laboratories and compile all documentation required for the CE declaration of conformity.
3. Conformity Assessment
Depending on the product and directive, we guide you through the appropriate conformity assessment module — Module A (self-declaration), Module B+D, Module B+F, Module G, or Module H. For high-risk products, we coordinate with European Notified Bodies for third-party assessment.
4. Declaration of Conformity & CE Marking
We prepare the EU Declaration of Conformity (DoC), affix the CE mark to your product and packaging, and provide the user manual in the required European languages. Your product is now ready for free circulation in the EU market.
5. Post-Market Surveillance
We help establish post-market surveillance procedures, complaint handling systems, and product traceability to comply with EU market surveillance requirements.
