Step 1: Understanding the Manufacturer Role
The manufacturer is the legal entity responsible for product compliance and safety in the EU and UK markets. Under EU and UK regulations, the manufacturer must ensure all products meet the necessary safety and conformity requirements before being placed on the market.
Who is considered a manufacturer?
A manufacturer is not necessarily the factory where a product is made. It is the company that places the product on the market under its own brand name.
If a UK-based company has a product manufactured in China but sells it under its own brand name in the EU or UK, the UK company is the manufacturer — not the Chinese factory.
If a company sells products under another company's brand, it is considered a distributor, not a manufacturer, and cannot register as a manufacturer in Euverify.
Manufacturer responsibilities:
The manufacturer is legally responsible for product safety, compliance, and conformity documentation.
The legal address provided will appear on the Declaration of Conformity and all compliance documents.
The manufacturer must ensure product compliance with applicable regulations (GPSR, CE/UKCA, etc.) before placing products on the market.
Step 2: Access Manufacturer Details
You can access the Manufacturer Details section in one of two ways:
Click Add Manufacturer Details in the Setup Guide checklist, or
Click Manufacturer Details in the left-hand Dashboard menu.
Step 3: Enter Manufacturer Information
Fill in the following fields:
Company Name – The legal name of the company responsible for product compliance
Company Logo – Upload your logo; this will appear on compliance documents
Street Address
City
Postcode
Country
This is the official legal address that will be displayed on your Declaration of Conformity and other regulatory documents. Ensure it is accurate.
Step 4: Authorised Signatory Details
The authorised signatory is the individual responsible for signing compliance documents on behalf of the company. Enter the following:
Full Name
Email Address
Phone Number
Country
Position in the Company
Step 5: Add a Signature
The signature added here will appear on your Declaration of Conformity. You have two options:
Draw your signature using the built-in signature tool, then click Submit Signature. If needed, click Clear Signature to start again.
Upload a signature as a JPG file.
Once all details are entered, click Save to complete your manufacturer setup.
Step 6: Add Your Brand Name (Optional)
If your products are sold under a brand name that is different from your company/manufacturer name, you can add brand details in the Brands section of the Manufacturer Details page. Click Add Brand and enter your brand name, logo, and website URL.
This ensures your Declarations of Conformity and compliance documents reflect the correct brand identity. On Growth, Scale, and Pro plans, you can add multiple brands belonging to the same legal entity.
