€99 per product. Guided self-assessment. 5 PDF documents in 30 minutes. The cybersecurity documentation your radio equipment needs for the EU market — without a consultancy, without a subscription, without leaving your browser.

Directive 2014/53/EU assigns technical documentation to the manufacturer (Art. 10(3)). The self-assessment model is built into the law: Module A (Annex II) allows the manufacturer to assess conformity internally when harmonised standards are fully applied. REDCheck operationalises this model: you assess your product against the EN 18031 requirements, guided by the generator's structured questions. REDCheck converts your answers into 5 PDF documents under Art. 21 and Annex V. No data leaves your browser. €99. One-time payment. No subscription. Download the ZIP, add to your technical file, retain for 10 years.

Three mistakes about self-assessment

COMMON ERROR

"Self-assessment means no documentation"

Module A requires FULL Annex V documentation. Self-assessment ≠ self-exemption. Art. 21 applies regardless of conformity route. Module A means YOU review your compliance instead of a Notified Body — but the documentation must be complete.

COMMON ERROR

"€99 cannot produce professional documentation"

REDCheck structures the same Annex V elements a €10,000 consultancy would. The €99 pays for the structure and legal references. Your knowledge of your product is the content. Same articles, same annexes, same EN 18031 categories. Different price.

COMMON ERROR

"Browser-based means insecure"

No data transmitted to any server. The generator runs in JavaScript on your machine. Disconnect from the internet after the page loads — it still works. GDPR-native by design: your product data never leaves your computer.

Technical documentation and third-party testing: two layers

● LAYER 1

Cybersecurity technical documentation (Annex V)

5 PDF documents. 30 min. €99 per product. Maps your EN 18031 assessment to the Annex V structure. This is what Art. 21 requires BEFORE your product can bear CE marking — regardless of conformity route.

∅ LAYER 2

Conformity assessment route

If you fully apply EN 18031, Art. 16 grants presumption of conformity → Module A self-declaration (Annex II) without Notified Body. If partially applied or not applied: Art. 17(4) requires Module B+C (Annex III) or Module H (Annex IV) with Notified Body. REDCheck generates the Layer 1 documentation that is a prerequisite for EITHER route.

We do not assess your product. We do not interpret EN 18031. We structure the documentation that Art. 21 requires based on YOUR assessment of YOUR product.

What happens without cybersecurity documentation

Art. 46 of Directive 2014/53/EU requires Member States to establish penalties that are effective, proportionate and dissuasive.

Art. 40 of Directive 2014/53/EU. Market surveillance can require withdrawal across all 27 Member States.

What REDCheck guarantees and what it does not

REDCheck generates a document structured under Art. 21 and Annex V of Directive 2014/53/EU based on the information you enter. The truthfulness, accuracy and completeness of that information is your responsibility as manufacturer of the radio equipment.

We guarantee that the document structure follows Art. 21 and Annex V of Directive 2014/53/EU and that the legal references cited are correct as of the latest verification date. We do not guarantee that a specific document will be accepted by a market surveillance authority in a specific case, nor by a commercial buyer in a procurement process.

REDCheck is not legal advice. For specific situations, consult a lawyer or specialised regulatory consultancy.
