As Chairman of the German Association for Gas Technology e.V. (GAGT e.V.), I would like to extend a warm welcome to you, our visitors.
In 1994, the then European Community (EC) concluded the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) with Iceland, Norway and Lichtenstein – the last remaining states of the former European Free Trade Association (EFTA) alongside Switzerland. As a result, these countries also enjoyed being part of a large European economic and free trade area without at the same time being subject to all the obligations that full EU membership would have entailed.
In addition to the Eastern European EU member states, the EEA thus includes all Western European territorial states with the exception of Switzerland.
Market surveillance ensures that public interests such as health and safety are protected and consumer and environmental interests are taken into account. At the same time, it ensures that the free movement of goods is not restricted beyond what is permissible under European regulations.
With this aim, the Market Surveillance Department, which was established on 1 January 2017, implements the requirements of various European and national directives, regulations and laws for the area of road vehicles.
Accordingly, the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA) carries out market surveillance for the following products:
Motor vehicles and motor vehicle trailers as well as systems, components and separate technical units for these vehicles;
agricultural and forestry vehicles;
two- or three-wheeled vehicles and four-wheeled vehicles.
