Online Workshop: UKCA Mark and Access to the United Kingdom Market

Workshop and materials will be in English language.

What is UKCA?

The UKCA (United Kingdom Conformity Assessed) mark is the conformity mark for technical products placed on the market in the United Kingdom (England, Wales and Scotland). It covers most goods for which CE marking was previously required under the "New Approach" technical regulations.

The UKCA mark came into force on 1 January 2021. However, to give companies time to adapt to the new requirements, it is in most cases possible to use the CE mark until 1 January 2023.

Purpose

The seminar presents the key UK market access requirements, the differences between CE marking and UKCA marking and provides guidance on the most effective UK market access.
