Can our factory quality team use CRACheck without cybersecurity expertise?

CRACheck guides users through each Annex VII section with clear prompts. The person entering data should know the product's firmware version, connectivity type, update mechanism and security features. This is typically the engineer who designed the product or the quality manager who handles CE documentation.

Is CRACheck available in Chinese?

CRACheck generates documents in English. The interface is in English. Article 31.4 requires documentation in a language acceptable to relevant authorities — English is accepted across the EU.

Can we use CRACheck for products we manufacture for EU brands (OEM)?

Yes. Generate the documentation using your product's engineering data. Deliver the 8-document ZIP to the EU brand. They review, adapt the Declaration of Conformity and sign it as manufacturer under Art. 3(13).

Do we need one CRACheck licence per unit produced or per product model?

Per product model. One licence generates documentation for one product with digital elements. If you manufacture 100,000 units of the same smart plug model, one licence covers the model. Different models with different firmware or connectivity need separate licences.

Is this a subscription?

No. One-time payment. The licence includes 30 days of editing and 10 regenerations. The downloaded PDF is yours to keep.

Can I request a refund?

Pursuant to Art. 16(m) of Directive (EU) 2011/83 on consumer rights, by activating the licence you give express consent for the immediate generation of the digital content, waiving the 14-day withdrawal period. Refunds are accepted only for reproducible technical failures.

What if the regulation changes?

If the regulation changes during the validity of your licence, you can regenerate the document with the updated version of the generator at no additional cost.

Your factory in Dongguan produces smart home devices for European brands and for your own Amazon store. The testing lab down the road handles CE, FCC and RoHS. None of them offer CRA documentation services yet. Regulation (EU) 2024/2847 requires Annex VII technical documentation for every connected product you export to the EU. CRACheck generates it in-house — no European consultant, no lab appointment, no NDA.

Dongguan and Ningbo are home to thousands of electronics factories exporting connected devices to Europe. The local compliance ecosystem — testing labs, certification agencies, freight forwarders — is built for EMC, RED, RoHS and REACH. CRA is a new layer that none of these local providers cover yet. You cannot wait for your Dongguan testing lab to develop CRA capability. CRACheck is a self-service tool: your engineering team enters product data, generates 8 PDF documents per Annex VII in 15-25 minutes, downloads the ZIP and delivers to your EU customer. €149 per product. Browser-side — your product data stays in your factory.

Self-service

No European consultant needed. Your engineering team generates the documentation in-house.

No lab

Local testing labs do not offer CRA services yet. CRACheck fills the gap until they do.

€149

Per product. Same cost as a CE test report. Fraction of a consultant fee.

CRA documentation for a Dongguan or Ningbo electronics factory

Your factory already produces CE documentation. CRA is one more layer — and CRACheck generates it without leaving the factory.

List all connected products you export to the EU

Smart plugs, cameras, LED controllers, sensors, gateways, chargers, speakers. Any product with WiFi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, LTE.

Classify each product

Use the free CRACheck classifier. Most consumer electronics are Default. Products with security functions are Class I.

Assign to your engineering team

The engineer who designed the product enters the data into CRACheck. They know the firmware, the connectivity, the update mechanism. 15-25 minutes per product.

Generate dossiers in batches

Use volume pricing for your full catalogue. Professional Pack: €1,199 (70 generations).

Integrate with your existing export documentation

Add the CRA dossier to the product file alongside CE, RoHS, REACH and product datasheets.

Deliver to EU customers

OEM brand customers, Amazon stores, Alibaba buyers — all receive CRA documentation with the product.

Your factory already produces CE documentation. CRA is one more layer — and CRACheck generates it without leaving the factory.

Factory-level CRA mistakes

❌

LOCAL LABS

We will wait for our local testing lab to offer CRA services

CRA enforcement starts 11 December 2027. Local testing labs in Dongguan and Ningbo are focused on EMC, RED and safety testing. CRA cybersecurity documentation is a different discipline — it requires software engineering knowledge, not lab equipment. Waiting for your local lab means missing the deadline. CRACheck generates documentation now.

❌

ART. 3(13)

We produce for EU brands — they handle compliance

When you produce under OEM contract, the EU brand is typically the manufacturer under Art. 3(13). But they will contractually require you to deliver Annex VII documentation because you have the engineering data. When you sell under your own brand on Amazon, you are the manufacturer. Either way, you need the documentation.

❌

DATA SECURITY

CRA documentation requires sharing our product data with a European consultant

CRACheck processes everything in your browser. No product data is sent to any server. No NDA required. No IP disclosure to third parties. Your firmware architecture, vulnerability handling processes and SBOM stay in your factory.
