Advantages of transferring to BASEC

With the cooperation of your current issuing notified body, manufacturers are allowed to transfer their certificates after the review of all FPC, CoCP and testing documents. BASEC’s transfer assessment could comprise of expediated AVCP desktop reviews and testing of a representative cross section of product, to verify current test certificate findings correlate with BASEC’s test findings.

Manufacturers can benefit from significantly consolidated testing fees.

Going forward you will also benefit from dual certification through joint auditing/testing for both UKCA & CE marking.

AVCP System 1+ certificates transferred to BASEC for UKCA marking from your current issuing notified body will become invalidated for export to EU markets.

The European commission has issued guidance advising that all AVCP System 3 that is placed on the EU market after 1st January 2021 will need to have a valid classification report issued by an EU27 NB and not a UK, at point of placement, not point of testing, which is a change of position.
