What is the internal market and the principle of mutual recognition?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe European Union's internal market is made up of the territory of all 27 EU Member States.<br \/>\nwas and is to give rise to a space in which the so-called four fundamental freedoms apply, namely: free movement<br \/>\ngoods, persons, services and capital.<br \/>\nEnsuring the free movement of goods is the cornerstone of a functioning EU internal market, and thus of the free movement of goods.<br \/>\nfair competition between market players. A number of products are at EU level<br \/>\nharmonised through specific sectoral regulations (machinery, such<br \/>\nequipment, toys, etc.). However, if products are not harmonised at European level, or only<br \/>\nIn part, the free movement of goods is ensured through the principle of mutual recognition. According to<br \/>\nthis principle, a Member State must authorise the placing on its market of a product if that product is<br \/>\nlegally produced or traded in another Member State. Legally, this principle is anchored in<br \/>\nRegulation (EU) 2019\/515 of the European Parliament and of the Council on mutual recognition of goods<br \/>\nlawfully placed on the market in another Member State and repealing Regulation<br \/>\n(EC) No 764\/2008.<br \/>\nMember States recognise that even if products are manufactured in accordance with other regulations, standards<br \/>\nor procedures other than their own, these in principle guarantee a comparable level of safety and<br \/>\nthey cannot deny them access to their market. In addition to EU Member States, the principle of reciprocity<br \/>\nrecognition also applies to the Member States of the European Economic Area (i.e. in addition to the Member States of the<br \/>\nEU countries (Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland) and Turkey, see more on: the principle of reciprocity<br \/>\nrecognition in the internal market for goods and the procedure under Article 5 of the Regulation | MIT<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.
