AliExpress has announced stricter certification and inspection requirements for vehicle and bicycle lighting equipment sold in the German market. In compliance with German laws, products like LED flashlights, signal lights, headlights, taillights, and safety warning lights must meet local legal standards and obtain the E-Mark approval from German regulatory authorities.
Scope of Product Inspection: This applies to all lighting devices used in automobiles and bicycles, including but not limited to LED flashlights, signal lights, bicycle front and rear lights, and safety warning lights. These devices must comply with local legal requirements to ensure safety and reliability.
Types of Products Affected:
- Vehicle Lights: Turn signals, headlights, taillights, etc., which must be properly certified to signal directions and ensure safety on the road.
- Bicycle Lights: Tail lights and safety warning lights that are essential for rider visibility and safety, along with front lights that illuminate the road ahead.
Control Measures: AliExpress will block the sale of non-compliant products in Germany that have not passed the necessary qualifications. Sellers are urged to meet these requirements promptly to continue trading smoothly in the German market. Compliance with local product laws is mandatory, and failure to adhere to these regulations will result in penalties.
What does this mean for buyers?
- Enhanced product safety: Stricter regulations ensure that the lighting equipment you purchase meets high-quality standards.
- Increased trust: AliExpress’ commitment to product safety builds trust among buyers.
- Legal compliance: By adhering to German regulations, AliExpress protects both buyers and sellers from potential legal issues.
AliExpress buyers in Germany can be confident in the quality and safety of the lighting products they purchase, as these measures are designed to ensure that all products meet stringent safety and environmental standards. The E-Mark Certificate, mandatory for all motor vehicle systems and components in the EU, serves as proof that these products adhere to essential traffic safety and environmental protection requirements.
