Our understanding is that if the equipment is being shipped within the same company…. i.e. shipping from North America factory to Europe factory…. CE is a non issue and does not apply in this case.
However, for customs, etc. your paperwork should indicate an inter-company shipment or transfer of equipment and NOT a sale of equipment. If you are selling the equipment, comments above do not apply. Further, if the equipment was “legal” in Europe before CE regulations were introduced… it is still “legal” there now. CE introduction did not make equipment, produced prior to the introduction of CE, suddenly “illegal”. Hope this helps.

We have some in-house designed test equipment that we are sending >from the U.S. to one of our factories in Europe. * What is needed to get a unit through customs? * What EU safety regulations do we still need to meet? * Any other advise is welcomed.
