Article 5 Mutual acceptance of industrial products including their conformity assessment

The Parties agree that, for the purpose of mutual acceptance, industrial products listed in the Annexes on Acceptance of Regulated Products, fulfilling the requirements for being lawfully placed on the market of a Party, may be placed on the market of the other party, if, in particular, they fulfil:

The Parties agree that, for the purpose of mutual acceptance, industrial products listed in the Annexes on Acceptance of Products Not Commonly Regulated, and for which no European technical regulations exist, may be traded between Israel and the EU on the basis that a product lawfully traded in the market of Israel or of one of the Member States of the EU may be lawfully traded upon that of the other Party to this Protocol.

Where products are subject to obligatory conformity assessment procedures to be carried out in accordance with the EU and national laws listed in the Annexes, the Parties further agree to recognise the results of such procedures without requiring them to be repeated, nor with the imposition of any additional requirements for the purposes of accepting such conformity assessment.

Notwithstanding paragraphs 1, 2 and 3, neither Party shall be obliged to accept products on to its market that have been lawfully placed on the market of the other Party as a consequence of an agreement similar in effect to this Protocol between either Party and a third country or party, or by virtue of a unilateral concession by either Party to a third country or party.
