Notified bodies
The procedure for notifying a body to carry out third-party tasks in the process of assessment and verification of constancy of performance shall be carried out by an notifying authority. In the field of construction products, the notifying authority is the Sector for Construction and Property Valuation at the Ministry of Physical Planning, Construction and State Assets.
An application to verify compliance with the requirements set out in Article 2 of
Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 and the procedure for notification to the European Commission is submitted to the Ministry designated as the notifying authority.
Notification is the procedure by which the notifying authority notifies the European Commission and the EU Member States of bodies carrying out third-party tasks in the process of assessing and verifying the constancy of performance of construction products.
A Notified Body is a body that is notified to the European Commission and the EU Member States and to which the European Commission assigns a four-digit identification number.
The European Commission shall confirm the submitted notification within the time limit prescribed in Article 48 (5) of
Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. As the notification is based on accreditation, it is stipulated that the notification shall be confirmed within two weeks, unless the European Commission or another Member State raises objections.
Once the European Commission has confirmed the notification, the applicant can start performing the tasks of the notified body for the product area according to the issued decision. When an applicant is notified for the first time, the European Commission assigns a four-digit identification number to that applicant.
Access to the register of notified bodies is provided at the
NANDO database website, while the records of Croatian notified bodies can be accessed from the Ministry's website.
