EU certification system for aviation security screening equipment

This procedure establishes a common European Union certification system for equipment used to screen passengers and luggage at airports. By standardizing security requirements, the EU aims to ensure a high and consistent level of aviation safety across all member states while reducing redundant national testing.

This will primarily affect aviation security equipment manufacturers and airport operators. It simplifies the process for companies to sell certified security technology across the EU market, ensuring that all screening tools meet the same safety benchmarks.
