You import consumer electronics from Shenzhen into Italy — cameras, baby monitors, smart speakers. Your CE marking covers EMC and safety. From 1 August 2025, Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/30 requires cybersecurity documentation under Art. 3(3)(d) and (e). Art. 12(2) requires you to verify that your Chinese supplier has drawn up the documentation. Italian market surveillance has already acted on competitors. A consultancy quotes €5,000–15,000 per model. 15 models = €75,000–225,000. REDCheck costs €99 per model. Professional Pack: €999 for 70 generations.

CE marking has always been a prerequisite for placing radio equipment on the Italian market. From 1 August 2025, it must include cybersecurity. The MISE (Ministero delle Imprese e del Made in Italy) oversees market surveillance.
The documentation obligation is the manufacturer's (Art. 10). But if your supplier cannot produce it, your products are blocked. REDCheck is a tool you can send to your supplier.
CE marking has covered safety (Art. 3(1)(a)) and EMC (Art. 3(1)(b)) since 2016. Cybersecurity under Art. 3(3)(d) and (e) is a NEW, SEPARATE requirement activated by Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/30 from 1 August 2025. Your existing CE marking does not cover it. The EU declaration of conformity must now reference the cybersecurity requirements.
Italian market surveillance has already withdrawn products from competitors. The MISE cooperates with the European Product Safety Alerts system (Safety Gate). A withdrawal in Italy triggers alerts across all 27 Member States.
Art. 12(1) is unambiguous: importers shall place ONLY compliant radio equipment on the market. Art. 12(2) requires you to verify documentation BEFORE placing the product. If you place non-compliant equipment, Art. 12(7) requires you to take corrective action — withdraw, recall, inform authorities. The obligation to produce the documentation is the manufacturer's. The obligation to verify it is YOURS.

If you fully apply EN 18031, you can self-declare via Module A (Annex II) without a Notified Body. If you partially apply or don't apply the harmonised standards, Art. 17(4) requires third-party involvement. REDCheck does not replace a Notified Body — it generates the documentation that is a prerequisite for any conformity route.
We do not sell testing. We do not sell consulting. We sell the tool that structures your cybersecurity documentation under Art. 21 and Annex V.
Italy enforces product safety through the MISE.
The Ministero delle Imprese e del Made in Italy (MISE) oversees market surveillance for radio equipment. Withdrawal orders are published and shared across the EU.
Legislative Decree 128/2016 transposes Directive 2014/53/EU into Italian law. Penalties for placing non-compliant radio equipment on the market.
Product withdrawals in Italy are reported to the Safety Gate system. All 27 Member States are notified. Cross-border sales are affected.
