EU RO Mutual Recognition (MR) Scheme

As well as individual Type Approval Certification, DNV also offers the possibility of obtaining a type approval certificate that is mutually recognised by all other classification societies working under EU Regulation 391/2009.

In order to ensure compliance with the class rules of the EU ROs and not to jeopardize safety, the MR scheme is limited to non-safety critical products and applications where no individual or product-specific certificate is required by the EU ROs. 

This is subject to certain conditions:

1. Product design and manufacturing quality must be covered by the MR scheme (EU MR Technical Requirements)
2. The application case must be known and non-critical.
