The follows text are from R&TTE annex VII 3. The CE marking must be affixed to the product or to its data plate. Additionally it must be affixed to the packaging, if any, and to the accompanying documents.
In my esperience is better have CE mark on the carton also to not oblige the autority to open the box for see if a goods have the CE marks or not. I Italy customs is the first barrier and have the autority to stop a unmarked goods. Ciao Paolo _________________________________________________ Paolo Gemma Siemens Mobile Communications S.p.A.

Others feel that the marking provides no added value to the customs processing procedure. So, the question is what are the customs officials looking for in the way of CE conformity and what process will best supply that information. In particular, is there any value added in CE marking the shipping cartons?
