On 13 December 2024, the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) 2023/988 will come into force, replacing the existing Directive 2001/95/EC. The aim of the new regulation is to ensure the safety of products offered and sold to consumers through digital and physical sales channels.
The GPSR has far-reaching implications for online retailers who sell their products through their own online shop or through marketplaces (such as Amazon, Ebay or Tyre24). From the deadline, the following information must be clearly visible on their product pages:
- Manufacturer information: Name, address and contact details of the manufacturer.
- Responsible person in the EU: If the manufacturer is based outside the EU, contact details of a responsible person in the EU must be provided.
- Product details: Information for precise identification, including product name, images, article number (such as EAN, GTIN or PZN) and other features.
- Product documents, safety information and warnings: all information relevant to consumer safety must be presented clearly and easily understandable.
