<p>The UKCA marking requirements came into force at 11pm on 31 December and apply
to most products placed on the market in Great Britain (England, Wales and Scotland)
that were previously subject to CE marking requirements. The scope of the UKCA regime
covers approximately 10,000 to 17,000 manufacturers across industries and product
sectors.</p><p> </p><p>In order to help businesses to transition to the new marking
requirements, in areas where GB and EU rules remain the same, products with the CE
marking, but without the UKCA marking, will be accepted on the GB market until 1 January
2022 in most cases (so long as they meet the relevant regulatory requirements). Businesses
are not required to report to Government when they have transitioned to the new UKCA
regime.</p><p> </p><p>The Government continues to engage closely with industry to
ensure that the transition to the new regime is as smooth as possible.</p>
