Safer shopping: new rules for product safety and consumer protection

This law introduces more effective safety checks for products sold in physical and online stores. Citizens gain an easier way to report dangerous goods and better protection against defective products thanks to stricter penalties for dishonest sellers.
Key points
Hazard reporting: Anyone can report a suspected unsafe product to UOKiK, and the reporter's identity will not be disclosed.
Safer online shopping: Inspectors can make anonymous test purchases online and order the removal of dangerous product listings from e-commerce platforms.
Information in Polish: Manufacturers and importers must use the Polish language when performing specific information duties and providing safety warnings.
Accident monitoring: The law regulates the functioning of the national system for monitoring consumer accidents, which helps gather information on incidents and related products.
High fines for businesses: Companies face fines of up to 1 million PLN for placing unsafe products on the market.
