CE label - Conformity Marking

After seeing a CE label I was interested to what it stood and whether I should remove the label. This is what I found out. 

CE stands for conformity marking for products sold with the European Economic Area. This sign can stil be seen on products outside of the EEA because the product may have been produces inside the EEA and therefore would require to have the CE marking. This makes the CE marking easily recognized outside the EEA hence why people may not be familiar with marking sign. Countries in the EU producing an item must include the CE marketing logo on their product. The purpose of the CE marketing shows certification that the product meets all of the CE marking requirements.
