Etsy Joins EU Product Safety Pledge
At Etsy, we understand a safe marketplace starts with our seller community making and selling safe products. That’s why we’re excited to share that today Etsy has signed the EU Product Safety Pledge, an initiative led by the European Commission focused on improving consumer protection online.
We strongly support this initiative, as we believe that marketplaces like ours are in a position to join together to help protect consumers from goods and services that violate regulatory policies, including unsafe products.
You can learn more about our support of this initiative on Medium here, and find additional resources for sellers about relevant regulations, laws, and Etsy’s policies on the Seller Handbook—including information on new requirements effective July 2021 for selling toys to buyers in the EU.
