EU Updates Harmonised Standards Under the Radio Equipment Directive

The European Commission has published Decision (EU) 2026/2003, amending Decision (EU) 2022/2191 on harmonised standards under the Radio Equipment Directive (RED, 2014/53/EU).

Overview

• Harmonised standards listed in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) give radio equipment a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements they cover.

• The updated references include standards for several categories of radio equipment, including radiodetermination equipment operating in the 2.4 GHz to 2.4835 GHz range, and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) short range devices installed in motor and railway vehicles.

• 
  

The new references were published in the OJEU on September 7, 2026. Superseded references are scheduled to be withdrawn on March 7, 2028, providing a transition period between the existing and updated standards.
