Bob, the Directive does required markings on the packaging, but it does not
define the type of packaging. It is my opinion that the sales package was
intended and not the shipping package. In my case, I only have a shipping
package, so I have applied the markings there. The CE mark must be followed
by the 4 digit Notified Body number if a NB was required to be used
according to Annex III or IV. If the product is a radio device and the band
is not harmonized, the Alert symbol must follow the NB number. Also, in that
case, information must be on the packaging to inform the user as to the
intended geographical areas where the equipment may be used. We apply the
2-letter ISO country codes. The extended CE marking must also appear on the
Declaration of Conformity.

Subject:  RTTE Packaging


I saw some postings recently to the following question but I was not able
to "browse the recent archives" so I will ask the question again.

Under the RTTE Directive is there any labeling requirements for the product
packaging or shipping packaging? If so, what is required?

Thanks,
Bob
