What does the CE symbol mean?

We often find a product bearing the CE mark, and some people think that this product is manufactured in Europe, or that it meets European specifications, or even that its specifications are very high because it bears this mark. Is our belief correct?

This symbol indicates CE: European Conformity. If this logo is found on a product, this means that the product has met the conditions of safety, health, environment, etc., and has a permit to be sold within the European market. It is often found on most products, such as (such as computers, phones, games, etc.)

The CE mark was established by the European Community in the 1980s and is an abbreviation for the European Commission or the European Community, from which the idea of ​​the European Common Market was launched in order to transport goods within the European Market countries easily and without re-examination of the products imported into the European market by each member or European country.

Any product bearing the CE mark is very easy to sell in all European countries without re-examination because this mark means that the product conforms to European standards in general. Products bearing the CE mark can be transported freely within the European Common Market countries without obstacles. Each type of product has different standards set by the European Joint Committee, such as standards for medical products, standards for electronic products, and others
