Article 10

Directive 2008/57/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the interoperability of the rail system within the Community (Recast) (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

Member States shall take all necessary steps to ensure that interoperability constituents: are placed on the market only if they enable interoperability to be achieved within the rail system while at the same time meeting the essential requirements; are used in their area of use as intended and are suitably installed and maintained. These provisions shall not obstruct the placing on the market of these constituents for other applications. Member States may not, in their territory and on the basis of this Directive, prohibit, restrict or hinder the placing on the market of interoperability constituents for use in the rail system where they comply with this Directive. In particular, they may not require checks which have already been carried out as part of the procedure of ‘EC’ declaration of conformity or suitability for use, the components of which are set out in Annex IV.
