Why You Need an EU Responsible Person

The General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) has been mandatory since 13 December 2024. Non-compliance has serious consequences.

Marketplace Removal

Without an EU Responsible Person, Amazon, eBay, and other marketplaces will remove your product listings from European stores.

Border Seizure

EU customs authorities can block and seize shipments that lack proper GPSR compliance documentation at the EU border.

Financial Penalties

Non-compliance with GPSR can result in significant financial penalties imposed by EU market surveillance authorities.

Who Needs an EU Responsible Person?

If you sell consumer products to EU customers and your business is outside the European Union, you need an EU Responsible Person. Here's who this applies to.

Non-EU Manufacturers and Sellers

If your company is registered in China, the United States, Turkey, India, the United Kingdom (post-Brexit), or any other non-EU country, you are required to appoint an EU-based Responsible Person before selling consumer products in Europe. This applies regardless of your company size — from solo entrepreneurs to large factories. The EU does not make exceptions based on business volume or product type.

Amazon, eBay, Temu, and Shopify Sellers

If you sell on any European marketplace — Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.it, Amazon.es, eBay EU, Temu, Etsy, or through your own Shopify store with EU customers — you need GPSR compliance. Since 2025, Amazon actively enforces this requirement and suspends listings without a valid EU Responsible Person. Other marketplaces are following the same approach.

Dropshippers and Private Label Sellers

Dropshipping from non-EU warehouses or selling private label products manufactured outside the EU? You still need an EU Responsible Person. The regulation applies to whoever places the product on the EU market — even if you never physically handle the goods. As the seller of record, GPSR compliance is your responsibility.

Product Categories That Require GPSR Compliance

GPSR covers virtually all consumer products: electronics and electrical devices, toys and children's products, clothing and textiles, cosmetics and personal care, home and garden products, sports and outdoor equipment, furniture and lighting. The only exceptions are products covered by separate EU regulations — medical devices, pharmaceuticals, food products, and motor vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

GPSR Timeline: Key Dates for Sellers

The General Product Safety Regulation has been years in the making. Here are the dates that matter for your business.

May 2023

The General Product Safety Regulation (EU) 2023/988 is officially adopted by the European Parliament and Council. This replaces the old General Product Safety Directive from 2001 and introduces the mandatory EU Responsible Person requirement for non-EU sellers.

13 December 2024

GPSR becomes mandatory across all 27 EU member states. From this date, every non-EU economic operator must have a designated EU Responsible Person before placing consumer products on the European market. The transition period is over.

2025

Amazon, eBay, and other EU marketplaces begin active enforcement. Listings without valid EU Responsible Person data are suspended or removed. Thousands of non-EU sellers lose their European sales overnight. This is happening right now.

2026

EU customs authorities across all member states actively flag and intercept non-compliant shipments at borders. Products without proper GPSR documentation are seized. Enforcement is now fully operational at both marketplace and border levels.

GPSR Requirements by EU Country

GPSR applies across all 27 EU member states, but enforcement intensity varies. Here's what you need to know about the key markets.

Germany (Amazon.de)

Germany has the strictest enforcement in the EU. The German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur) and market surveillance authorities actively monitor Amazon.de listings. Germany is the largest e-commerce market in Europe — if you sell in the EU, your German listings are likely your biggest revenue source. Non-compliance here means losing your most valuable EU market first.

France (DGCCRF)

France's consumer protection authority (DGCCRF) conducts regular product safety inspections both online and at borders. French customs are particularly active at major ports like Le Havre and Marseille, where many Asian shipments enter the EU.

Italy and Spain

Both Italy and Spain have growing e-commerce markets and are increasing GPSR enforcement. Amazon.it and Amazon.es apply the same compliance requirements as Amazon.de. If you sell across multiple EU Amazon marketplaces, you need the same EU Responsible Person for all of them — our service covers all 27 EU countries with a single registration.

Netherlands

The Netherlands is a major logistics hub for EU e-commerce. Many fulfillment centers and warehouses are located here. Dutch customs at Rotterdam — Europe's largest port — actively check GPSR compliance on incoming shipments.

United Kingdom (Post-Brexit)

Important: The UK is NOT covered by GPSR. Since Brexit, the UK has its own product safety regulations (UKCA marking). Our EU Responsible Person service covers the European Union only — all 27 member states. If you also sell in the UK, you need a separate UK Authorized Representative.
