My experience with importing components and end products to the EU is BOTH -> especially if both are external to the EU and/or if company 'B' has applied the CE mark to its end-use box.
And if others say no to the above - give me a good reference that can be inserted in the left nostril of various NBs. Brian From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2010 10:48 AM To: [email protected] Subject: definition of manufacturer Within the scope of the EMCD, ‘manufacturer’ has been defined as any natural or legal person who manufactures a product or has a product designed or manufactured, and markets that product under his name or trademark. Suppose company A manufactures, assembles, tests and CE marks a product for available sale. As a courtesy to customers, Company B makes the product available by giving it a company B part number for the customer to order as an accessory to it's main product line. Company B does not "brand label" the accessory, but rather leaves all Company A markings intact. Who is responsible for meeting the requirements of the EMCD, company A or B?
