Having an authorised representative is one of the many requirements that you need to comply with to access the European market. The area of compliance is very complex and most of the time the product needs to comply with several directives or regulations. Understanding the requirements are therefore essential and the very first step in CE or UKCA compliance. The 6-step UKCA/CE marking process specifically describes this as the primary first step:

1. Find the directive(s) that applies/apply to your product.
2. Identify the essential requirements for your product.
3. Determine if you need third-party certification.
4. Assess product conformity.
5. Create and maintain technical documentation.
6. Declaration of conformity & affixing the CE/UKCA Mark.
