Together with sustaining member IMCI, EBI has developed guidance and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on the new EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR). 

The GPSR is in place and applicable since 14 December 2024. Despite the specific regulation for parts of the boating industry – the Recreational Craft Directive and in parts the Personal Protective Equipment Regulation – several requirements of the GPSR are relevant for all products and should be carefully considered. The FAQ provides an overview and relevant information for manufacturers, importers and distributors. This also responds to a number of questions EBI has received from industry.

EBI advises informing businesses about the GPSR and the FAQ document. In case there are any further questions, EBI is available to assist further.
