Standardised format for conformity assessment certificates and reports: UK21/G010

Adopted EU recommendation GEN-019. UK approved recommendation on the application a standardised template for conformity assessment reports and certificates.

Question

Each Approved Body uses its own format for certificates or conformity reports for modules D, E, F and G. Should a standard certificate or report format be used or should each certificate or report contain specified minimum information?

Recommendation

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) is able to provide a template demonstrating suitable content, format and layout of certificates or reports for modules D, E, F or G.

These templates are only given as guidance. While the information contained in the certificates or reports should include at least the content indicated in the attachments, the actual format and layout is left with the individual Approved Body.
