E-mark certification is a technical requirement implemented by the Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) for vehicles and components exported to its member states. The certification standard is the ECE Regulation.
The Economic Commission for Europe is an agency under the United Nations and is not a European organization. Its member states include approximately 60 countries from Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania that recognize this certification. Additionally, certificates issued by any member state are mutually recognized by other member states.
