A Factory Perspective

Ask suppliers which certification body issued their certificates and when the last audit took place. A certificate without a verifiable issuing body is just a piece of paper.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I check whether a certificate is real?

Yes. Every certificate names an issuing body such as TUV or BSI. Contact that body directly or use its online verification portal to confirm status.

Is CE marking the same as UKCA?

No. CE marking confirms a device meets EU regulatory requirements, while UKCA is the UK equivalent. A factory exporting to both markets holds both documents.

What is the difference between CE and UKCA?

CE applies in the European Economic Area and UKCA applies in Great Britain. Some products need both if the supplier ships to both markets.

What happens if a supplier changes factory location?

Certifications are tied to a specific manufacturing site. A factory move means new audits and re-issued certificates, so confirm the address on every document.

Do I need RoHS for microneedle devices?

RoHS restricts hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. If your device includes electronic components such as a motor or battery, RoHS compliance applies.
