The primary function of the European Union’s CE program is to preserve the environment, ensure consumer protection and improve the European free market.  In an effort to contribute to these objectives, a number of safety and environmental requirements have been established for recreational craft.

CE-marking and certification to comply with the recreational craft directive is a legal requirement in the European Union member states and the European Economic Area countries

Those countries are: • Austria • Belgium • Bulgaria • Cyprus • Czech Republic • Denmark • Estonia • Finland • France • Germany • Greece • Hungary• Iceland • Ireland • Italy • Latvia • Lichtenstein • Lithuania • Luxemburg • Malta • Norway • Poland • Portugal• Romania • Slovakia • Slovenia • Spain • Sweden • The Netherlands • UK

Products that do not carry the CE marking and are not in compliance with the directives, may be restricted, prohibited from sale or forced to withdraw from the European market.
