We Work With Manufacturers in Spain
Click the “Talk to Our Team” button to the right to contact our engineering and compliance team to request a free quote for your device or ask a question about the CE certification process.
Electronic devices sold in the European Economic Area (EEA, a market consisting of European Union countries as well as Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) are legally required to complete the CE certification process.
Completing lab testing and CE certifying your device grants you the right to affix the CE marking to your device and legally enter the EEA market.

CE Certification is Mandatory for Selling Your Device in the EEA
All consumer and industrial electronic devices sold in the European Economic Area are subject to regulatory directives. These regulations set minimum standards for advice safety, the use of environmentally hazardous substances, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
For consumer electronic devices, the most relevant directives are designed to ensure that your device does not produce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and is safe for end users.
Common EU regulatory directives for electronic devices include:
- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive. The EMC directive sets standards for electromagnetic compatibility to prevent your device from potentially affecting devices in a shared electromagnetic environment.
- Radio Equipment Directive (RED). The Radio Equipment Directive applies to devices that deliberately use the radio frequency (RF) spectrum for communications.
- Low Voltage Directive (LVD). The Low Voltage Directive is a safety regulation that applies to devices in the 15 to 1,000 volts AC or 75 to 1,500 volts DC voltage ranges.
- Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive. The RoHS Directive restricts the use of dangerous materials, such as lead, cadmium, mercury and several others, in electronic devices.
The specific directives to which your device is subject can vary based on its design, functionality and other factors. Our engineers and compliance experts can tell you more about the regulatory requirements for your device and help you understand the CE certification process.
Contact us online and we can provide a full CE testing and certification roadmap for your device to enter the European market.
Example Electronic Devices That Require CE Certification

- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Electronic musical instruments and recording devices
- Computers, printers, keyboards and other peripherals
- Security cameras and other home security systems
- Commercial and industrial electronic devices and equipment
- Other consumer electronics
Contact Us About CE Testing & Certification for Your Device
If you plan to market your device in the European Economic Area, completing CE testing and certification is critical. The CE mark is legally required for market access, and selling a device without certification may place you at risk of fines and/or other legal action from the EU.
As an accredited electronics testing and certification lab, we specialize in CE certification and can help you with the entire process, from testing your device to certification. We work with manufacturers worldwide, including in Spain and throughout the EU.
We also offer a complete range of other testing and compliance services for electronic devices, including FCC (USA) and ISED (Canada) compliance.
