The UKNI marking is a new conformity marking for products placed on the market in Northern Ireland which have undergone mandatory third-party conformity assessment by a body based in the UK. 

UKNI marking is mandatory under below conditions:

• The goods (mostly those goods subject to the CE marking) are sold on the Northern Ireland market

• The goods require mandatory third-party conformity assessment and you are planning to use a UK AB body to carry out those conformity assessments

However, UKNI marking cannot be used if either of the following apply:

• The goods are sold in the EU, sold in EU used CE logo

• Conformity assessment is done by an EU Notified body used CE logo

We cannot apply the UKNI marking on its own, it always accompanies an EU conformity marking. The UKNI marking is not recognized on the EU market. If you are placing goods on the EU market, you must use the CE marking on its own, without the UKNI marking.

In most cases, UKNI marking is applied to the product itself of to the packaging. In some cases, it may be placed on the manuals or on other supporting documents. The marking is at least 5mm in height and it has to be visible, legible and permanently attached, as below:

Manufacturer and authorized representative (importer) must keep documentation to demonstrate that product conforms with the regulatory requirements. This must be kept for up to 10 years after the product is placed on the market. The general records that must be kept are:

• how the product is designed and manufactured

• how the product has been shown to conform to the relevant requirements

• the addresses of the manufacturer and any storage facilities

The information should be kept in the form of a technical file which can be supplied if requested by an enforcement authority.

Your goods may require different markings for different markets. The table below illustrates the accepted markings on each market.
