Amund There’s no explicit validity date in the Directive and I’ve seen different NBs use different expiration dates, however, RED Annex III, Module B, para 7 states:
The notified body shall keep itself apprised of any changes in the generally acknowledged state of the art which indicate that the approved type may no longer comply with the applicable requirements of this Directive, and shall determine whether such changes require further investigation. If so, the notified body shall inform the manufacturer accordingly. The manufacturer shall inform the notified body that holds the technical documentation relating to the EU-type examination certificate of all modifications to the approved type that may affect the conformity of the radio equipment with the essential requirements of this Directive or the conditions for validity of that certificate. Such modifications shall require additional approval in the form of an addition to the original EU-type examination certificate. The RED certificate is never “irrevecoably valid” until the expiration date as the state of the art may have changed, including Harmonised Standards being superceded and, of course, the product may have changed to an extent that the original assessment needs to be reviewed Best regards Charlie Charlie Blackham Sulis Consultants Ltd Tel: +44 (0)7946 624317 Web: https://sulisconsultants.com/ Registered in England and Wales, number 05466247 From: Amund Westin <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 22, 2023 5:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] RED certificate - validity period The RED EU-Type Examination Certificates I have seen, are valid for 4 years. Is the validity period something regulated by the EU or is it up to the Notified Body to set the period on the RED certificate?
