Artikel 11 Allmän produktsäkerhet


Summary What does Article 11 of the CRA regulation say?

This article establishes a bridging relationship between the Cyber Resilience Act and the EU's General Product Safety Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/988).

It operates as a targeted exception, activating specific chapters of the General Product Safety Regulation to fill gaps where this Regulation does not cover certain aspects or categories of risk for products with digital elements, provided those products are also not already covered by other Union harmonisation legislation.

Important points:

  • Specific chapters of the General Product Safety Regulation apply to products with digital elements, but only for risks or aspects not already addressed by this Regulation.
  • This acts as a safety net: the General Product Safety Regulation steps in only where neither the Cyber Resilience Act nor other Union harmonisation legislation provides specific safety requirements.
  • The article explicitly carves out an exception to the General Product Safety Regulation's own scope rules to make this cross-regulatory coverage possible.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.
