What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

What this object is about

    Consequence

What this object states

Official fact

Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.

  • Article 3(19) defines notifying authority as the national authority responsible for setting up and carrying out the necessary procedures for the assessment, designation and notification of conformity assessment bodies and for their monitoring.

Our interpretation

Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.

  • The notifying authority is not your point of contact and does not supervise you. It approves the assessors. That distinction is often missed in the market: companies approach the notifying authority when they should be dealing with the market surveillance authority. For most organisations the practical significance is indirect but real: as long as Member States have designated few bodies, capacity is limited for the systems that do require external assessment.

Recommended step

A practical step we consider appropriate. Not an obligation following from the Regulation.

  • Record in your dossier which national bodies are relevant for your sector and what role each has, so that a notification or question does not go to the wrong party. Explicitly distinguish the notifying authority, the market surveillance authority and any notified body used by your supplier.

When this applies

No condition recorded on this object.

When this does not apply
