FREE ANNEX VIII STARTING TEMPLATE

PPWR EU Declaration of Conformity template

Use the official Annex VIII field order as a starting point. The template deliberately includes review warnings because the responsible manufacturer can issue the Declaration only after the applicable requirements have been demonstrated.

EU DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY No …

  1. 1. Manufacturer
  2. 2. Packaging identification
  3. 3. Sole-responsibility statement
  4. 4. Object of the Declaration
  5. 5. Regulation (EU) 2025/40
  6. 6. Standards/specifications
  7. 7. Additional information and signature

What the template includes

It follows the core Annex VIII model: Declaration number, manufacturer, packaging identification, sole responsibility, object, applicable legislation, standards or specifications, additional information and signature details.

Fields are prompts, not completed legal conclusions. Replace every bracketed value with verified packaging information and remove guidance notes from the final approved version.

Do not sign a blank evidence claim

The Declaration belongs to the manufacturer route and depends on the Annex VII conformity assessment. Importers and distributors normally verify and retain the real manufacturer Declaration instead of issuing a substitute.
