Mutual Recognition of Conformity Assessment
There are numerous 'Agreements on Mutual Recognition of Conformity Assessment' between the European Union and other countries such as the USA, Japan, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel. Consequently, the CE mark is now found on many products from these countries.
Turkey (which is not a member of the EEA) also requires products to show CE marking as affirmation of conformity.
