Input
Where to start
All three entry points fill the same set of facts.
Reference test corpus
Rule coverage (spec §14.2.8)
For every regulation: applicable and not superseded → must have at least one stage, or an open question able to lead to one. Checked by enumerating branch facts within each vertical, not just hand-picked cases.
Applicable legislation
Compliance roadmap
The roadmap will appear once applicable regulations are determined.
Who you need
Each link opens a pre-filled search on the relevant provider portal. The search filters are still being refined, so double-check the results.

The five provider types
Five roles. One connected route.
The roadmap tells you who enters at each stage — and why.
Notified Body
Independent EU-designated bodies that certify higher-risk products — medical devices, radio equipment, machinery, PPE — before they can carry the CE mark.
Browse Notified Bodies → 15,600+ Testing LaboratoryTesting Laboratory
Runs the actual safety, EMC, chemical or performance tests your product needs — whether or not a Notified Body is also involved.
Browse Testing Laboratories → 1,700+ Certification BodyCertification Body
Certifies your company's management system — ISO 9001, ISO 13485, and others — or issues voluntary product certifications outside the CE framework.
Browse Certification Bodies → 250+ EU Authorised RepresentativeEU Authorised Representative
The legally required EU-based contact point for manufacturers outside the EU, for regulations that mandate one — MDR, IVDR, GPSR, the AI Act.
Browse EU Representatives → 80+ Regulatory ConsultantRegulatory Consultant
Helps with strategy, gap analysis, and technical documentation — the parts of compliance that aren't a lab test or a certificate.

Traceable sources.
Compiled from official EU registries, public accreditation records and provider disclosures — then organised around the route you actually need.
FAQ
Before you start
Short answers to the questions that matter at the beginning.
Is this free?
Yes. The roadmap tool, every provider directory, and every profile are free, with no account and no card required.
Do I need an account to use the roadmap?
No. Answer the questions and see your roadmap immediately. An account only comes into play later, if you decide to send a request to a specific provider.
How accurate is this — can I rely on it?
The roadmap is built from a structured rule base citing the actual EU articles behind each step, not a generic checklist. It's a strong starting point for figuring out your route, not a substitute for regulatory sign-off on a specific product.
What if I already know which provider I need?
Skip the questions — the five provider directories above are open to browse and search directly.
Is my answer data stored?
Your answers stay in your browser to build the roadmap. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to act on a result, such as opening a provider search.
