What it is
DEKRA is an international testing, inspection and certification (TIC) organisation. It tests products, issues certificates and acts as a notified body for various EU product legislation.
Why it matters for compliance
Conformity often needs test reports against the right standards, and higher-risk products may require third-party assessment. DEKRA provides both — useful for the empirical evidence in a technical file and for conformity routes that require an independent body.
How to use it
- Commission product testing against the relevant standards.
- Use it for notified-body assessment where required.
- Keep reports traceable to the specific product and correct standard editions.
Good to know
Confirm via NANDO that the body is designated for your specific legislation before relying on it as a notified body.
