Why is GPSR Technical Documentation important?

[EaseCert]

The General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) requires businesses selling consumer products in the EU to maintain comprehensive Technical Documentation proving product safety and compliance. This documentation must be available to market surveillance authorities for up to 10 years after the product is placed on the market.

Why is GPSR Technical Documentation important?

- Ensures compliance with EU safety standards
- Required for selling on platforms like Amazon and eBay
- Reduces the risk of recalls, fines, and legal issues

What should GPSR Technical Documentation include?

- Product Description – Name, model, intended use, specifications, and images
- Bill of Materials (BOM) – Material details, supplier information, and part numbers
- Safety & Risk Assessment – Potential hazards and mitigation measures
- Test Reports & Certificates – Compliance with EN 71, EN 62368, RoHS, etc.
- User Instructions & Warnings – Assembly, maintenance, and safety guidelines
- Traceability Information – Manufacturer, importer, and EU representative details
- Declaration of Conformity (DoC) – Official confirmation of compliance
- Market Surveillance Procedures – Complaint handling and recall protocols
- Packaging & Labeling Compliance – Product identification, warnings, and recycling symbols

Proper documentation is essential for legal compliance, market access, and consumer protection. Stay ahead by ensuring your products meet GPSR requirements.
