CE Marking for IoT Devices Done in Weeks

Most IoT devices fall under multiple CE directives simultaneously. The Radio Equipment Directive (RED) applies to devices with radio or wireless capability, the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) applies to devices powered above certain thresholds, and the EMC Directive covers electromagnetic compatibility. RoHS applies to most electronic hardware sold in the EU. Hardware Compliance's AI agents analyze your specific product specs and surface every applicable directive with full citations so you are not guessing which requirements apply.

Traditional CE marking through consultants can take several months due to research, documentation assembly, and lab scheduling. Hardware Compliance compresses the pre-lab phase — regulatory research and technical documentation — from weeks or months into a matter of days by automating the work AI agents can do at speed. Total timeline depends on your lab's schedule and test results, but Hardware Compliance eliminates the bottlenecks that happen before you ever reach the lab.

Traditional consultants charge by the hour and work linearly — research first, then documentation, then lab referrals. Hardware Compliance's AI agents run these workflows in parallel and at a fraction of the cost of traditional consulting hours. Every output includes full citations traceable to the source standard, and industry professionals review AI-generated documentation before lab submission, giving you both AI speed and human accountability.

IEC 62368-1 is a key safety standard for audio, video, and information technology equipment and is frequently required for IoT devices seeking CE marking in the EU. Hardware Compliance's multi-standard coverage includes IEC 62368-1 alongside RED, LVD, EMC, and other relevant directives. The platform surfaces all applicable requirements from this standard and incorporates them into your technical file and test plan.

For CE marking, Hardware Compliance auto-generates the core technical documentation package required for EU market access — including the technical file, product-specific test plans aligned with identified directives and standards, hazard analyses where applicable, and a draft declaration of conformity. All documentation is reviewed by industry professionals before submission to ensure it meets what accredited labs and notified bodies expect to receive.
