Inhalt

The sites of the EU legislation seem to be a jungle. Why is it important to find the correct term in the EU product legislation? What is a regulation, directive or act? What is a harmonized standard? How to find the correct translations of terms in a European legal act? What are the specifications of the definition source in laws and standards? In a practical way, you will learn how to find the relevant legal acts, their validity, notations and structure, the difference between “comes into force” and “will apply” and, last but not least, the correct translations of terms in the EU legal acts.

Das lernen Sie

You will make an interactive journey through the EU sites of the product legislation with focus on legal terms. Target is to find the correct translations of the terms in the official EU languages in a practical way.
