Recital 63

(63) In order to safeguard the functioning of the internal market, it is necessary to ensure that products from third countries entering the Union market comply with this Regulation and with the delegated acts adopted pursuant to it, whether imported as products, components or intermediate products. In particular, it is necessary to ensure that appropriate conformity assessment procedures have been carried out by manufacturers with regard to those products. Importers should therefore be required to ensure that the products they place on the market comply with those requirements and that the CE marking and documentation drawn up by manufacturers are available for inspection by the competent national authorities. Importers should also be required to ensure, where applicable, that a digital product passport is available for those products.
