Authorized Representative: Meeting Your Legal Responsibilities While Safeguarding Trade Secrets
If your product is CE certified for the European market, you have compiled a Technical File of all documentation ensuring your product’s CE marking compliance with the applicable CE marking directives. According the CE requirements, a full copy of the Technical File must be kept in Europe.
If your company is located outside Europe, you will have to find a person or company to retain the Technical File. You may choose to give the Technical File to one of the European distributors. However, most manufactures do not prefer to give Technical File in the hand of its distributors, because it contains a lot of confidential design and manufacturing documentation that they do not want to disclose to the distributor. Also, they do not want to loose their flexibility in changing distributors. This is where Alura Group's Authorized Representative service provides a good solution.
As your Authorized Representative, Alura Group retains the Technical File for your products and keep them available for the European authorities to review upon their request. Alura Group represents your company in the communications with the competent authorities concerning CE compliance matters.
