Tim,
It was my experience in a past life that Turkey, especially Turkish Customs, has for the last few years been quite fanatical about enforcing/validating CE compliance of products entering Turkey. Turkish Customs was very particular for newly manufactured products (products held at Customs until they were satisfied). I also remember that Turkish Customs only accepted telecom/radiocom compliance via EU/ETSI standards (we even had to provide test reports on occasion). This I believe was started with their application for membership into the EU and has, however, turned into an over zealous barrier of trade of sorts. The components you’ve listed might be considered to be apparatus under the new EMC Directive depending on their intended availability to the end user. I suggest that you read through the new EMC Directive and its Guide, both available on the Europa website, and how they relate to components. From that, you might get the reasoning of Turkish Customs. IHTH.

Turkey has for many years ollowed the EU guidelines for CE Markings and DoC. They must be enforcing it now for FRU apparatus. One exception is wireless/telecom homologations - Turkey still requires approvals by their telecom/radiocom regulator Best Regards, Peter --- On Fri, 1/23/09, emcp...@aol.com <emcp...@aol.com> wrote: From: emcp...@aol.com <emcp...@aol.com> Subject: New Turkey Requirement To: emc-p...@ieee.org Date: Friday, January 23, 2009, 4:22 PM Hello group, Have anyone heard of a new requirement by Turkey start this month for CE? They are asking to have CE DoC for all sub-assemblies (Field Replaceable Units) example is memory DIMMs, SFP's, PCI cards etc. that are used in network servers or appliances. This is based on EMC directive which was released in 2004.
