Does your Declaration of Conformity file hold up?

When a retailer or an authority asks for your file, you have days to produce it, not weeks. Nine plain questions show you how much of it you can actually stand behind today. It runs in your browser. Nothing is sent or stored.

This checks whether the required elements are present in your file. It does not judge whether they are substantively correct, and it is not legal advice. Verified against Regulation (EU) 2025/40 on 22 July 2026.

Think of one packaging type you sell. Answer each question yes, no, or "I don't know." Honest answers give you a real picture. If you cannot answer, that counts as a gap, because an authority will not accept "I don't know" either.

0 of 9 you can stand behind

What this tells you, and what it does not. It shows how many of the required parts of your file you have. It cannot tell you whether the ones you have are actually correct, or whether they would hold up when someone checks. A "yes" here is a starting point, not a guarantee. Closing the gaps, and confirming the parts you have actually stand up, is the work.

Found gaps you did not expect?

A short call puts a number on the work: which packaging types are covered, which are not, and what closing each gap actually takes. Fixed scope, no obligation.
