CE marking

EU compliance symbol

CE marking is a certification symbol indicating that a product sold within the European Economic Area meets EU safety, health, and environmental requirements.

The letters stand for Conformité Européenne (European Conformity).

Manufacturers affix the distinctive mark—a stylized "CE"—to products ranging from electronics to toys to medical devices: Check for the CE marking before importing.
