Your product is listed in Annex III of Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 as Important Class I. This changes the conformity assessment route. If you have applied the relevant harmonised standard in full, Module A self-assessment is sufficient. If you have not — or if the standard does not exist yet — Article 32.2 requires conformity assessment by a notified body under Module B+C or Module H. CRACheck generates the technical documentation the notified body will review.

Annex III lists 19 categories of Important Class I products and 4 categories of Class II. If your product falls in Class I, you must determine whether harmonised standards under Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 have been published and whether you have applied them fully. If yes: Module A self-assessment. If no: notified body assessment. Either way, Article 31 and Annex VII require technical documentation. CRACheck generates 8 PDF documents covering all Annex VII sections. 15-25 minutes. €149. The documentation is the same regardless of which assessment route applies. Browser-side.

How to determine your CRA conformity assessment route as a Class I manufacturer

The documentation obligation is the same for all Class I products. The assessment route depends on harmonised standard availability.

1
Confirm Annex III classification
Review the 19 Class I categories. Use CRACheck classifier to determine which category your product falls under.
2
Check harmonised standard availability
Have harmonised standards under Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 been published in the Official Journal for your product category? Check EUR-Lex.
3
If harmonised standard available and fully applied
Module A self-assessment under Art. 32.1(a). You assess conformity yourself. No notified body needed.
4
If no harmonised standard or not fully applied
Art. 32.2 requires Module B+C (EU-type examination + internal production control) or Module H (full quality assurance) by a notified body.
5
Generate Annex VII documentation
CRACheck generates the 8-document dossier. This documentation is the input for both Module A and notified body assessment routes.
6
If notified body route: submit documentation
The notified body reviews your Annex VII documentation. CRACheck generates it; the notified body evaluates it.

The documentation obligation is the same for all Class I products. The assessment route depends on harmonised standard availability.

Class I conformity assessment mistakes

ART. 32.2

Class I always requires a notified body

Not always. Article 32.2 first subparagraph of Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 states that if the manufacturer has applied harmonised standards, common specifications or European cybersecurity certification schemes covering the essential cybersecurity requirements, Module A self-assessment is sufficient even for Class I. The notified body is required only when harmonised standards are not fully applied.

ANNEX VIII

Module A is simpler than Module B+C — the documentation is different

The Annex VII technical documentation is the same regardless of the conformity assessment module. Module A means you assess it yourself. Module B+C means a notified body reviews the same documentation and issues a certificate. Module H means the notified body assesses your quality management system. The documentation obligation does not change.

ANNEX III

My product is not exactly listed in Annex III — it is similar but not identical

Annex III categories describe product types, not specific model numbers. "Routers, modems intended for the connection to the internet, and switches" covers all consumer and enterprise routers. "Smart home products with security functionalities" covers any smart home device with security features. If your product fits the functional description, it is Class I. Use the CRACheck classifier for formal determination.

What each CRACheck dossier contains: 8 documents

Annex VII documentation is required for all Class I products, regardless of whether Module A or notified body assessment applies. CRACheck generates the 8-document package.

Documentation vs. conformity assessment

● LAYER 1

What CRACheck does

Generates the Annex VII documentation for your Class I product. Covers all 8 sections. Ready for Module A self-assessment or notified body submission.

∅ LAYER 2

What CRACheck does NOT do

CRACheck does not determine whether harmonised standards have been published for your product category. CRACheck does not select your notified body. You verify standard availability and engage the notified body.

We generate the documentation. You determine the assessment route.

Frequently asked questions

What is the full list of Annex III Class I products?
Annex III Class I includes 19 categories: (1) identity management/privileged access, (2) browsers, (3) password managers, (4) anti-malware, (5) VPN, (6) network management, (7) SIEM, (8) boot managers, (9) PKI/certificate software, (10) network interfaces, (11) operating systems, (12) routers/modems/switches, (13) microprocessors with security functions, (14) microcontrollers with security functions, (15) ASICs/FPGAs with security functions, (16) smart home virtual assistants, (17) smart home products with security functions, (18) internet-connected toys with speaking/filming/tracking, (19) health-monitoring wearables and children's wearables.
What is the difference between Class I and Class II?
Class I products can use Module A self-assessment if harmonised standards are fully applied. Class II products always require notified body assessment under Art. 32.3 — Module B+C or Module H — regardless of harmonised standard application. Class II includes: hypervisors/container runtimes, firewalls/IDS/IPS, tamper-resistant microprocessors and tamper-resistant microcontrollers.
When will harmonised standards be available?
The European Commission has mandated CEN/CENELEC to develop harmonised standards under Regulation (EU) 2024/2847. The timeline depends on the standardisation process. Monitor the Official Journal for publications.
Can we use ETSI EN 303 645 or IEC 62443 as harmonised standards?
These standards are recognised cybersecurity frameworks. They may be listed as harmonised standards under the CRA if published in the Official Journal with a CRA reference. Until that publication, they cannot be used to trigger Module A self-assessment for Class I products. Check EUR-Lex for the current list.
