CE marking — EU product conformity — Poland
CE marking on regulated promotional products — DoC, technical file and Notified Body coverage for Poland.
Architecture — What we cover for Poland
Regulated promotional products sold into Poland carry CE marking where required: electronics (RED 2014/53/EU, EMC 2014/30/EU, LVD 2014/35/EU), PPE (Regulation 2016/425), toys (Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC). For each SKU we maintain a Declaration of Conformity (DoC) referencing the relevant harmonised standards and, where applicable, a Notified Body number. Files retained 10 years after last placing on the market.
How to wire it up — Technical file and responsibility
The technical file includes design drawings, BOM, risk assessment, test reports (typically EN 62368-1 for IT/AV, EN 71-1/2/3 for toys), instructions and packaging artwork. We act as importer or authorised representative within the EU; the Warszawa address appears on the product or packaging as required. VAT 23% invoicing via KSeF runs independently — but on regulated SKUs the DoC reference is recorded on the invoice line for traceability.
Operations and edge cases — Customer obligations
When you brand a regulated product (for example a power bank) we typically remain the responsible economic operator; you keep the rights to your artwork. If you modify the product (firmware change, additional plug) you may become a manufacturer and inherit obligations — we will flag this at quoting and either guide you through the conformity process or decline the project. Market-surveillance authority for Poland cooperates with us via the ICSMS network. Krajowy System e-Faktur (KSeF) invoice events surface the DoC reference for AP reconciliation.
FAQ
Who is the responsible economic operator?
Typically Corp-Merch's EU entity. We can be manufacturer (where we design), importer (where we source from outside EU), or authorised representative for non-EU brand owners.
Where is the DoC stored?
Centrally in our compliance dossier; customers can request a copy for any regulated SKU they purchase.
What about UKCA?
For UK shipments we additionally apply UKCA where required. Northern Ireland: CE+UKNI per the Windsor Framework.
What if I customise the product?
Brand printing alone keeps you as user. Functional changes (firmware, plug) may make you a manufacturer — we'll flag before quoting.
Connection to invoicing?
VAT 23% invoicing via KSeF works independently. On regulated SKUs the DoC reference is recorded on the invoice line.
