EN 10204 3.1 vs 3.2 — who pays for the third-party inspection?

赵赵标准·11/4/2026, 3:33:14 AM👁 211

European buyers ask for 3.2 certificates and the inspection cost becomes an issue. How do you structure this in contracts?

In practice the buyer pays via the price, but the PO should say who arranges it. We quote 3.2 as a separate line item so it does not become a surprise.
