Certification costs
CE certification costs the main cause
CE certification costs mainly depends on the choice of certification body and product-related directives. Different products test items are also very different, generally common products for electronic and electrical products, common test items categorized EMC and LVD directives. The cost of CE marking for mechanical products is much higher than that for ordinary products, which involves a factory audit program and evaluation.
CE certification costs can apply for funds to develop subsidies
Small and medium-sized enterprises to develop international markets, including product certification project support as long as the enterprise meets the conditions for the development of funds to apply for project grants to support the content of the product inspection and testing costs, and other costs are not supported by the proportion of 50%, the maximum amount of 30,000 yuan / a. The product must be certified by a foreign certification company. Product certification must be certified by foreign certification companies or by the China Certification and Industry and Commerce Administration audit, registered branches and authorized agents (only directly authorized). Each enterprise each product in a country only supports one certification.
Choosing a CE certification body
Most companies need the TUV certification, but are thought to be too expensive offer. CE certification issued by the TUV, its authority is beyond doubt, but in fact, the EU recognizes a number of certification bodies, it is entirely possible to choose the European Union recognized by any certification body to pass the CE certification.
CE certification is only a product safety certification, and does not certify the quality of the product. Therefore, through the TUV or other European member states recognized by the certification body is not a big difference, the domestic certification body can also be issued CE certificate.
CE certification is a conformity assessment, it is generally by the self-affirmation and certification body certification of the two forms.
Domestic issued CE certificate:
First point: the authority is questioned, the test certificate is not recognized, the enterprise to suffer great losses.
The second point: the export of goods ashore, the other side of the customs may prevent your goods ashore, the reason is that the domestic testing organizations EU countries are not recognized, the problem of testing organizations can not guarantee you.
CE certification costs and product directives
Some products CE certification only requires LVD certification, the customer has specified that it must be done EMC directive, and there is a cost difference between the two. Do CE certification, some customers are ready to sell on the domestic market, do CE certification is to publicize their products, it is arbitrary to choose a directive to do. CE certification provides for the free circulation of its products in the markets of EU member states, the requirements of all directives contained in its products through the testing and certification before affixing the CE mark. Electrical CE certification generally requires LVD, EMC should also include mechanical instructions. Therefore, the cost is completely different, CE certification selection of directives should also refer to the customer's comments and the product's own situation.
