Is DoC a customs requirement or CE Directive requirement?

It's not a customs-imposed requirement and I don't think it is a CE Directive requirement. It is a requirement of the LVD, the EMCD and the Machinery Directive and probably most others.

As I wrote, if the customs can't see a DoC, they are likely to assume that it doesn't exist, so will impound the shipment. Including the DoC with the shipment paperwork prevents that. Of course, there is no way to prevent the customs wrongly interpreting the DoC, as the OP found.
