    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    Yeah, that’s how I am seeing / understanding it so far. So, stuff we sell now from UK to all countries (EU, worldwide) we can continue to do so. But new products won’t be possible. However, I am sure there will be loopholes to this - eg, we sell a lot of custom emblems and personalised one-off...

    Also. This had a bit of insight; EBay - forum post - clicky

    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    I’ve not seen it say second hand? I’m referring to other stuff anyway, like - eg - car parts, emblems, badges, stickers, small stuff… and stuff that’s new - not used .. it’s all so vague it would seem impossible to police. eBay doesn’t state about used / second hand stuff

    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    It states: “However, Article 51 of the GPSR states that EU nations shouldn’t ‘impede’ the sale of any product that was first supplied for distribution, consumption, or use on the EU market before 13 December 2024, provided that product is covered by and complies with the General Product Safety...

    AMAZON - EU Responsible Person Requirements from August 18th.

    I know this is Amazon specific but maybe this applies given marketplaces surely adhere to similar guidelines. I posted on a different thread in here with eBay’s updated GPSR info and they’ve stated that if the item you’re selling is already available on the EU market (eg you already sell it)...

    Eh? Not sure I understand you there? Before December this year I read that as. So anything already for sale, basically, right now and pre existing products, will be fine. If you list something new after December, it’ll likely need an RP - I assume. If you continue to sell the same stuff over and...

    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    EBay have updated their GPSR page and something now says: I assume this is good news for people selling stuff on there which are existing products as they’ll fall under the pre-Dec2024 deadline, meaning no RP required, and as long as you add safety stuff to listings it must comply - is that...

    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    they will have to do something, everyone can't just stop selling to Europe/NI overnight from the UK. It's just unimaginable for trade.

    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    is there any place / way to follow the actual discussion and outcome of this regulation and the stuff above which was being discussed officially by government? seems like such a massive thing with very little in the way of a solution and no real talk about it anywhere

    AMAZON - EU Responsible Person Requirements from August 18th.

    I found this on twitter which I am trying to decipher; does this allude to the UK aligning with EU laws and meaning we can continue as normal, hopefully, if this all passes and gets amended? https://x.com/jp_biz/status/1814604323826897182 See the comments - couple of bits: • Current law...

    AMAZON - EU Responsible Person Requirements from August 18th.

    Thanks for this. It does help, but still a couple of questions on my part namely eBay... All listings now show the 4 required bits (i sent a link somewhere - basically it asks for the address/info of the EU RP right now on listings in the "disclosures" section - and you're being asked to add...

    AMAZON - EU Responsible Person Requirements from August 18th.

    Yeah I’ve had that email and know about that page, but it’s the first I’d seen about it tbh - maybe I should monitor the seller updates a bit more often. Still, what’ll happen is that they’ll eventually keep emailing to say you need to add the EU RP to all your listings or they’ll end up...

    AMAZON - EU Responsible Person Requirements from August 18th.

    That’s helpful - we don’t use Amazon but maybe a lot will apply to eBay. The “brand owner” bit - what if you make your own stuff, say, posters, gel stuff, and arts & crafts? How does that work?

    General Product Safety Regulations? Wow!

    I can't even really grasp how it will work Let's assume you have an RP somewhere - do you just submit info for your item (which info?) to some EU RP and they add it to a catalogue of stuff? They aren't physically asking for one of each item to test it surely? Anyone know what sort of info they...
