Article 19: Importer duties
Summary
Article 19 concerns importers. Documented duties include placing only compliant products on the market, verification duties and cooperation on risks.
Core point
Importers are not outside the CRA duty chain. Article 19 contains their own verification, information and cooperation duties, which must be considered alongside manufacturer duties.
In practice
Importers should check before placing products on the market whether conformity assessment, technical documentation, CE marking and required information are traceable.
