REACH Enforce 13: Online trade

With the new REACH-Enforce Project No. 13, online trade in particular will be scrutinised more closely. State and federal authorities have reminded online traders of the labelling obligations of their products, and only in extreme cases have penalties been issued for non-compliance with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (REACH) and Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP).

In 2025, inspectors will check online articles and mixtures for compliance with the REACH and CLP Regulations, as well as for compliance with RoHS II and POPs Guideline. The evaluation and a comprehensive report are expected in 2026.

For more information on the REACH-Enforce projects, please visit ECHA’s website.
