Article 11 a distributor or importer shall be considered a manufacturer for the purposes of this Directive and shall be subject to the obligations of the manufacturer where the distributor or importer places a product on the market under their own name or trade mark or modifies a product already placed on the market in such a way that compliance with the requirements of this Directive may be affected. This is the same 'becomes the manufacturer' rule that applies in the PLD Article 4(18) substantial-modification regime + the GPSR + horizontal product-safety stack. Article 12 IDENTIFICATION OF ECONOMIC OPERATORS: economic operators shall, on request, identify the following to the market surveillance authorities for a period of 5 YEARS after they have been supplied with the product (Article 12(1)): (a) any economic operator who has supplied them with a product; (b) any economic operator to whom they have supplied a product. Article 12 is the 10-year identification chain (manufacturer to distributor with 5-year backward + 5-year forward chain).
This control maps to 1 controls across 1 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
The graph holds this control, the 1 it maps to, and the evidence behind each claim, over MCP and REST.
