No, this is only relevant if you sell in the EU (and I think identical requirements still exist in the UK). That said there are similar documents in the US - namely the GCC and CPC.
if the manufacturer wants to sell to eu it should know what are the requirements. Then the responsibility of the importer is to check the paper work.. at least that's what I understood from reading the official documentation
Correct, but in practice it's very rare that suppliers outside the EU can actually provide a complete set of CE documentation (e.g. DoC, user instructions, test reports, and technical documentation). As such, it often falls on the importer to create the required documents for the supplier (or at least provide detailed guidance).
Would this be a requirement for importers in the U.S as well, or is it just a EU thing?
