Is my standard still good for presumption of conformity?

Paste one reference or a whole list (one per line, or comma separated). You get the status on the Official Journal lists, the end of legal effect if one is set, and a link to the dated record. Nothing is uploaded; the check runs in your browser. Record as of 8 October 2026.

Cited, presumption applies
The reference is in the Official Journal list with no end of legal effect set.
Cited with restrictions
In the list, but a notice in the list limits which requirements it covers.
Cited, cessation date set
In the list with an end of legal effect that has not yet passed.
Presumption ended
Every entry for this reference carries an end of legal effect that has passed.
Draft, not yet cited
Being written under a standardisation request; no presumption of conformity yet.
Published, not yet cited
Published by the standards body but not yet cited in the Official Journal; no presumption of conformity until it is.
Columns not labelled
The capture did not carry the Commission's column headers, so no state is asserted.

Matching is by reference, ignoring case and spacing, and it tries the undated form too: typing EN 60204-1 finds every dated edition on the lists. "Not on the lists" means the reference is not in any summary list we archive today (Machinery, Radio Equipment, General Product Safety) nor in the CRA and AI Act drafting programmes; it says nothing about other directives.
