The UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) mark is used to replace the CE marking requirements for all apllicable products - included signs – placed on the UK market. The UKCA mark shows that a product placed on the UK market meets the conformity requirements of that market. The UK conformity assessment procedures and underlying technical regulations (EN standards) that must be used to demonstrate conformity are largely the same as for the award of the CE mark.

From September 1, 2023, the Ecodesign Regulation will ban fluorescent lamps, which are subject to the EU Directive on the limitation of mercury and the restriction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. This directive, RoHS (Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment), was recently amended and now has consequences for the abolition and thus also for the availability of various lamps.
