The CE certificate is a mark that indicates a product sold in the European Union (EU) market complies with safety, health, and environmental protection requirements. It signifies that the product adheres to all EU regulations and has undergone specific testing. However, not all CE certificates are genuine or valid. So, how can you distinguish a genuine CE certificate from a fake one?
The first step in verifying the authenticity of a CE certificate is to examine the information of the issuing Notified Body. The CE mark is not only necessary for marketing products in the European market but also demonstrates compliance with relevant EU regulations and standards.
If the CE certificate includes a Notified Body number, you can verify its validity on the official EU website.
The issuing organization must be recognized and approved. At SERTIFİKE, we specialize in guiding you through the CE certification process and protecting you from fake certificates.
A genuine CE certificate must adhere to a specific format and include particular details. It should clearly state:
Fake certificates often lack these details or contain inconsistencies. Genuine CE certificates are accompanied by supporting documents, such as manufacturer or supplier approvals and required test reports.
SERTIFİKE’s Role: We meticulously follow all steps to issue accurate and valid CE certificates to our clients.
Obtaining a genuine CE certificate involves a defined process:
Fake certificates often skip these inspection processes, increasing the likelihood of low-quality or unsafe products.
SERTIFİKE’s Role: We ensure that all processes are carried out legally and accurately, eliminating the risk of fake certificates.
Every CE certificate has a validity period. Fake certificates may include misleading validity dates or have already expired. Genuine CE certificates are valid for a specific duration from the date of issuance and must be renewed upon expiration.
The complexity of obtaining a genuine CE certificate may lead some individuals or companies to resort to fake certificates. In such cases, seeking accurate and reliable consultancy is crucial.
