Meroi Security is now registered as an independent external expert with the European Commission. As a European Commission expert, we sit in the pool of specialists the Commission draws on. It calls on us to evaluate projects and tenders, and to advise on questions that need specialist knowledge. Our field is cybersecurity and EU regulatory compliance.
What the European Commission expert role involves
The Commission keeps a register of external experts and calls on them to support its work. For example, experts assess grant applications, review projects and tenders, and provide opinions on specific questions. The Commission selects them on the basis of their qualifications and experience. In addition, every expert acts independently of the institution.
Why it matters for our clients
Meroi Security exists to solve one problem. Manufacturers outside the EU want to place products with digital elements on the European market. However, the rules that govern those products are not always easy to read from the outside. The Cyber Resilience Act is the sharpest example. It sets real obligations. Many companies in Taiwan, the United States, and beyond are only starting to map them. NIS2, DORA, and GDPR sit close behind.
Recognition at this level reflects the depth of knowledge the work demands. As a result, we bring real command of EU cybersecurity law to every engagement. It is the same standard the Commission looks for in a European Commission expert.
What changes, and what does not
The day-to-day stays the same. We continue to deliver EU security compliance services, CRA gap assessments, readiness support, technical documentation, EU Authorized Representative services under Article 18, and CRA training. However, this recognition adds a clear signal. Many manufacturers outside the EU need a European Commission expert who understands the regulation. Because of this credential, that confidence now carries EU institutional weight behind it.
The clock is already running
The CRA’s reporting obligations start to apply in September 2026. In addition, full compliance is due in December 2027. Therefore, companies that begin early face a far smoother path than those that wait. In short, if your products reach the EU market with digital elements, Meroi Security is ready to help.
