We are focused on consumer protection and provide special information for inspection and surveillance authorities.

Our online service is of particular interest to inspection and surveillance authorities. VDE tested and certified products can be found in a special database, which is updated daily. Manufacturers or marketers who have been detected during our market and product surveillances to have forged the VDE mark or used it without authorization will be listed in our misuse list.
