HARMONISED EUROPEAN STANDARD
<Title;
[Part <NUMBER>: ] Harmonised Standard covering the essential
requirements of article <x> [and article <y>]
of the Directive <YYYY/NN/EU>
Although the format of the title should be as indicated, it is recommended that revisions of existing HSs preserve the original title
provided that references to "essential requirements" and the relevant Directive are present and that the title is not misleading.
The EN (European Standard) is the formal output for standardization at the European level and shall be chosen when the document
is intended to meet needs specific to Europe and requires transposition into national standards or when the drafting of the document
is required under an EC/EFTA mandate.
The EN shall be identified as a Harmonised Standard, the reference of which is intended to be published in the Official Journal of the
European Union (OJEU) referencing the relevant Directive. This identification shall be made at "Public Enquiry" and "Vote" stage and
when the standard is published by ETSI (see https://portal.etsi.org/Portals/0/TBpages/edithelp/Docs/EDR_Navigator.chm clause 8.2
for help).
The Harmonised Standard shall include all technical specifications necessary for demonstrating presumption of conformity of the
products and phenomena within its scope.
Methods of measurement may be included in the Harmonised Standard, or may be normatively referenced in the text.
The guidance text (green) shall be removed when no longer needed.

Intellectual Property Rights (style H1)
This clause is always the first unnumbered clause.
IPRs essential or potentially essential to the present document may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (https://ipr.etsi.org).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee
can be given as to the existence of other IPRs not referenced in ETSI SR 000 314 (or the updates on the ETSI Web
server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.
Foreword (style H1)
This unnumbered clause is mandatory and shall appear just after the IPR clause.
Replace all <parameters> with the appropriate text.
This draft Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by {ETSI Technical Committee|ETSI
Project|<other>} <long techbody> (<short techbody>) and is now submitted for the combined Public Enquiry and Vote
phase of the ETSI standards EN Approval Procedure.
Or;
This final draft Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by {ETSI Technical Committee|ETSI
Project|<other>} <long techbody> (<short techbody>) and is now submitted for the Vote phase of the ETSI standards
EN Approval Procedure.
The Foreword shall have at least the following paragraphs:
1.
A paragraph referencing to the Commission’s standardisation request:
a.
The reference shall be exact with full bibliographical details.
b.
This paragraph shall make a general statement on how the relevant standard is supposed to
support application of the relevant Union harmonisation legislation.
The present document has been prepared in reply to the {Commission's standardisation request [Full reference if
available]} to provide a means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive [Reference numbers of
legislation] [Full title].
EXAMPLE:
The present document has been prepared under the Commission's standardisation request C(2015) 5376 final [i.x] to
provide one voluntary means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU on the harmonisation
of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing
Directive 1999/5/EC [i.x].
2.
A paragraph stating that the legal effect (presumption of conformity or other effect) is conditional and
comes only after a reference to a relevant European standard is published in the Official Journal of the
European Union:
a.
This paragraph is needed when publication of a reference in the OJEU leads to a legal effect.
b.
This paragraph shall always make a reference to a table which indicates the relationship between
normative clauses (see note 1) and relevant legal requirements aimed to be covered.
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table […] confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated
EFTA regulations.

EXAMPLE:
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table A.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated
EFTA regulations.
Optionally, a specific part of the Foreword may be provided by the Technical
Body giving as many of the following as are appropriate:

an indication of any other organization that has contributed to the preparation of the ETSI deliverable;

a statement that the ETSI deliverable cancels and replaces other documents in whole or in part;

a statement of significant technical changes from the previous version of the ETSI deliverable;

the relationship of the ETSI deliverable to other ETSI deliverables or other documents;

The existence of an electronic attachment accompanying the ETSI deliverables, if this is not mentioned
elsewhere.
Multi-part documents
The following block is required in the case of multi-part deliverables:

the <common element of the title> is the same for all parts;

the <part element of the title> differs from part to part; and if appropriate;

the <sub-part element of the title> differs from sub-part to sub-part.
The paragraph identifying the current part (and sub-part, if appropriate) shall be set in bold.
See an example in the Foreword of ETSI EN 300 392-3-5 standard regrouping the different cases we may have of multipart deliverables containing different deliverable types (e.g. TSs and ENs), parts and sub-parts and a less complex one
with ETSI TS 101 376-3-22.
For more details see clause 2.5 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (EDRs).
The best solution for maintaining the structure of series is to have a detailed list of all parts and subparts mentioned in
one of the parts (usually it is part 1).
If you choose this solution, the following text has to be mentioned in all of the other parts and sub-parts:
The present document is part <i> of a multi-part deliverable. Full details of the entire series can be found in part [x]
[i.x].
See an example in the Foreword of the ETSI EN 302 217-2-1.
Transposition table
Each European Standard (EN) shall contain a transposition table as the last element in the Foreword, see
http://portal.etsi.org/edithelp/Files/other/EDRs_navigator.chm clause 2.5.1 for help.
The Harmonised Standard shall have appropriate transposition periods specified. A Harmonised Standard confers
presumption of conformity when it has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) and
transposed by a member state. The Official Journal citation gives the date of cessation of presumption of conformity of a
previous standard. This is usually taken to be the date of withdrawal (dow) supplied by the standardization body.

Transposition prior to publication
In Harmonised Standards under:

The default dates should be 3 months, 6 months, 18 months.
The Technical Body may propose different dates to the default dates above. Technical Bodies who wish to propose
different dates are advised to indicate this clearly in the approved committee draft.
NOTE:
The date of cessation of presumption of conformity of the previous version in the Official Journal of the EU
is usually set to be the same as the date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard.
The leading FP paragraph is part of the transposition table. This table is the last entry in the foreword. It is bookmarked
"transposition table".
Proposed national transposition dates
Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa):
3 months after ETSI publication
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this EN (dop/e):
6 months after doa
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow):
18 months after doa
The Technical Body should advise the ETSI Secretariat if the above default national transposition dates are inappropriate
for the particular standard.

This paragraph shall always make a reference to a table which indicates the relationship between
normative clauses (see note 1) and relevant legal requirements aimed to be covered.
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table […] confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated
EFTA regulations.
EXAMPLE:
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table A.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated
EFTA regulations.
NOTE:
The above paragraphs has to be repeated in the Foreword.
The annex shall have a table for a clear indication of correspondence between normative clauses of the standard and the
legal requirements aimed to be covered.
It shall be evaluated case by case how detailed correspondence it is possible to indicate or it is needed to
indicate between the normative elements of the Harmonised Standard and legal requirements aimed to be
covered. However, where this correspondence is expressed in too general terms, it could lead to a situation
where the Commission cannot assess whether the Harmonised Standard satisfies the requirements, which it
aims to cover, and subsequently publication of its references in the OJEU according to Article 10(6) of the
Regulation is significantly delayed or is not possible at all.
