To continue selling in the EU/NI markets, it’s essential that your product listings include specific details required under the new regulations. Non-compliance can result in significant consequences, including your products being hidden from buyers, regulatory penalties, or even having your business disqualified from selling in these regions.
Here’s what you need to do to stay compliant:
1. Manufacturer’s Information
Your product listings must include the manufacturer’s name, contact details (address, email, phone), and, if applicable, the name of a designated EU Responsible Person (if you’re based outside the EU/NI).
2. Safety and Compliance Details
Include essential safety information, such as:
• Safety warnings (e.g., chemical hazard labels)
• Clear product labels and manuals
• Instructions for safe use and disposal
3. Product Identification
Each listing must have clear and accurate product identifiers:
• Product images
• Product description
• Product type and features
This helps customers understand exactly what they are buying and ensures they receive safe, high-quality products.
If you sell to customers in the EU or Northern Ireland, you must comply with GPSR regulations. This applies whether you’re a local seller or based outside the region. For EU/NI sellers based out of EU/NI, you’ll need to designate an EU Responsible Person to take on compliance responsibilities, ensuring your products meet these new standards.
If your product listings do not meet GPSR standards, they may be hidden from buyers in the EU and NI. Non-compliance can also lead to regulatory fines and penalties.
To help sellers meet the new requirements, we’ve made the process easier by providing resources, such as pre-filled product description sheets. These templates will guide you in updating your listings with the necessary information.
• Review your current listings: Ensure all required details are present.
• Designate an EU Responsible Person: If you are located outside the EU/NI, you must have an official representative.
• Update your product listings: Add safety labels, product identifiers, and the required manufacturer details.
By ensuring that your products meet all safety and compliance standards, you can continue to sell to customers in the EU and Northern Ireland without issues.
