The GPSR Regulation on General Product Safety came into force on 13 December 2024. As trade-e-bility reported (GPSR warning possible), the amendment to the Product Safety Act, which has not yet been adopted, provides for a fine of up to 10,000.00 euros for violations by online sellers in the area of information obligations.
As Onlinehändler News informs, online sellers are already obliged under the current Product Safety Act to indicate the producing company and its contact details directly on the product or (if not otherwise possible) on the packaging. Otherwise, there is a risk of a warning. In one case, the producer's details were neither on the product itself nor on the film bag used for packaging. The required information could also not be found in the offer on eBay.
trade-e-bility not only offers pragmatic GPSR services but also helps you with questions about manufacturer information on your products and packaging at +49/40/750687-300 or beratung@trade-e-bility.de.
