Thanks! So, currently we can just use our existing CE DoC documents, but from 01.01.2023, those documents are not valid and an UKCA approval must be in place … right?
If that’s the fact, the period to 01.01.2023 is short and I would prepare for an UKCA approval right now.

This new regulation, when introduced (no timelines given), and based on the summary notice criteria, will effectively increase the acceptance of CE marking of products as a means of meeting UKCA marking requirements. Until this new regulation is introduced, the current framework, timelines and conformity assessment process for UKCA marking remains, in that from 01 January 2023, CE marking will no longer be accepted when placing product onto the Great Britain Market.

This also includes where goods are subject to important changes, overhauling its original performance, purpose, or type requiring new certification. Any ‘new’ good must comply with GB regulatory requirements, including the requirement for conformity assessment by a UK approved body from 1 January 2023. The new legislation when introduced concerning UKCA marking effect only the following UK Regulations: * Noise Emission in the Environment by Equipment for Outdoor Use Regulations 2001 * Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products Regulations 2010 * Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011 * Explosives Regulations 2014 * Pyrotechnic Articles (Safety) Regulations 2015 * Electromagnetic Compatibility Regulations 2016 * Simple Pressure Vessels (Safety) Regulations 2016 * Lifts Regulations 2016 * Pressure Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 * Equipment and Protective Systems Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2016 * Non-automatic Weighing Instruments Regulations 2016 * Measuring Instruments Regulations 2016 * Recreational Craft Regulations 2017 * Radio Equipment Regulations 2017 * Regulation 2016/425 on personal protective equipment as it applies in GB * Regulation 2016/426 on gas appliances as it applies in GB <https://cdn.intertek.com/mail/images/2018_template/location.png> Our Address Intertek Day Ave Knowlhill Milton Keynes MK5 8NL <https://cdn.intertek.com/mail/images/2018_template/chat.png> Urgent Testing Need?
