E-mark certification is also known as ECE certification. Its full English name is Economic Commission of Europe, and ECE is its acronym. According to the regulations of the ECE Regulation, when vehicle parts and components products are exported or exported together with complete vehicles to the markets of member states of the Economic Commission for Europe, the products must be tested and reviewed for production consistency by an authorized institution, obtained an ECE certificate, and stamped with the E mark. Only then can they be approved for sale in the markets of their member states.

The Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) is not a European institution. It is one of the five regional committees under the United Nations Economic and Social Council. Its main responsibility is to promote economic cooperation among member states. The committee currently has 56 members, including in addition to European countries, countries in Asia, Africa, Oceania, the United States, Canada, Israel and Central Asia. The headquarters of the Committee is located in Geneva, Switzerland. However, in terms of ECE certification implementation, the United States, Canada and other countries do not recognize it, and they have their own technical standards. For example, FMVSS SAE, the United States technical standard for vehicle parts, implements DOT certification.

There are many member states of the Economic Commission for Europe, and the unified standard implemented is ECE Regulation, but there is more than one institution issuing ECE certificates. Currently, it is mainly issued by EU member states, and its governing body is the transportation authority of each country. Due to certain differences in certification requirements in each country, ECE certification time and certification fees will also vary slightly.
