Hello I have a fuseboard with fuses specifying BSEN60898 on them. Is the fuseboard compatible with the EICR or do I need to replace it?

More info is needed - where is this ‘fuse board’ (which as others have said is probably really a box of circuit breakers with those numbers ) .
Is it's condition suitable for the location (signs of damp /mechanical damage/missing covers or screws/ finger sized holes would all be bad ).
What is it supplying, and as others have raised are their RCDs as well to consider. Or post a photo .
An EICR is not really about looking for the presence or absence of some printed numbers, though that may help a more accurate installation date to be decided. The question is more if it looks to be safe for continued use until the next inspection, or does it need some improvement - that is a many sided question.
