Type Approval for Guernsey

All Regions » Europe » Guernsey
The Guernsey Office of the Committee for Economic Development oversees market access for electronic products on the island. While Guernsey is a British Crown Dependency and often aligns with UK or EU technical standards, it maintains regulatory autonomy and is not part of the United Kingdom. For most product categories, Guernsey does not require UKCA marking. Instead, it may accept CE or UKCA marks as evidence of conformity, depending on the product type. There is no blanket requirement for UKCA labeling, and Ofcom regulations do not automatically apply. If your product falls under specific regulatory frameworks such as radio equipment or safety-critical devices, we recommend reviewing local acceptance criteria.
