After the United Kingdom withdrew from European Union, they introduced a new conformity assessment method for the products placed in the Great Britain (GB) market, which is UKCA. Conformity marking, Conformitè Europëenne (CE) can be utilized upto 31 December 2024. For distributing the manufactured goods or handle in Great Britain (Scotland, Wales, and England make up Great Britain) the UK Conformity Assessed (UKCA) guidelines published by the UK Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy must be followed.
