The updated guide clarifies the scope of the RED, the responsibilities of economic operators, conformity assessment procedures, and requirements for technical documentation, CE marking, declarations of conformity, and market surveillance. It also provides detailed explanations on the treatment of radio modules, vehicles, Software Defined Radio (SDR), Internet-connected devices, and wearable products.

Particular attention is given to cybersecurity requirements applicable to connected radio equipment, the relationship between RED and emerging EU legislation such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the AI Act, as well as updated guidance on common charger requirements and USB-C interoperability.

The new publication serves as an essential reference for manufacturers seeking to ensure continued compliance and uninterrupted access to the European market as regulatory requirements continue to evolve.
