Regulation API
Programmatic access to the ComplyMatrix EU regulation database — harmonised standards, CE-marking directives and their change history. Available on the Enterprise plan ($4,999/year or $599/month).
Overview
The Regulation API lets your software check any product against the current EU legal landscape: regulations, harmonised standards (EN), and reference documents, each with scope, applicability dates and verification items. Integrate it into your own compliance workflow, ERP, or marketplace listing tool.
- 1,300+ harmonised standards and 370+ regulations, updated daily from EUR-Lex
- Structured fields: scope, exemptions, obligations, harmonised status, change log
- JSON responses, HTTPS only
Authentication
Enterprise customers generate an API key in the dashboard (Dashboard → API— it is shown once, so store it safely). Send it in the Authorization header:
curl https://api.complymatrix.cloud/v1/regulations \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
Generate your key under Dashboard → API after upgrading to Enterprise.
