Status of standards supporting the application of General Product Safety Directive as of January 2022

This page provides information on the status of the standards that can be applied to provide presumption of safety or to assess product safety in the context of the General Product Safety Directive. This information is complementary to the updated information provided under the specific dynamic webpage for GPSD (Directive 2001/95/EC) https://genorma.com/en/directive/show/2001/95/EC

DISCLAIMER: This is an informative page without any legal value. Users of standards are strongly advised to make their own risk assessments when deciding which version of the standards they should use for their products.

Note 1: Only standards cited in the Official Journal under the General Product Safety Directive give presumption of safety to products complying with the cited European standards.
