Greetings,
The statement below is not correct for all Directives.
The EMC Directive Guidelines states: " Where neither the manufacturer nor
his authorised representative is established within the EEA, the obligation
to keep the technical documentation available is the responsibility of the
person who places the apparatus on the EEA market." The requirement is the
same for the D of C.
The EMC Directive Guidelines also states "It is not a requirement of this
Directive to supply a declaration of conformity with the apparatus."
Since these requirements vary by Directive, it is important to review the
specific Directives.

Please respond to

And the answer is........................
The D of C must be signed by the responsible person designated by the
manufacturer. The signatory does not have to be located in the EU.
The manufacturer must designate a representative in the EU who will hold
the certificate and the technical file. This could be an agent,
distributor.
A copy of the D of C that states the directives complied with must be
placed in the user manual. Note, this does not have to be signed, but it
must state where the signed original can be obtained. i.e. the EU
representative's contact details.

Hi folks,
I've been asked by a US manufacturer who's signature if any should appear
on the D of C, and should they be located on European soil.
Is there a clear consensus?
Thanks,
