General information about the Product Safety Regulation (GPSR)
What does the EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) regulate?
Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on general product safety (General Product Safety Regulation; GPSR) contains essential requirements for the safety of consumer products that are placed or made available on the market.What information obligations must retailers fulfill under the GPSR?
In distance selling (e.g. via online stores, marketplace stores or also when selling by email), the offer of products must already contain at least the following information in accordance with Art. 19 GPSR:1.) Indication of the name, brand, address and electronic address of the manufacturer.
Every product offer in online trade must
- the name, registered trade name or registered trade mark of the manufacturer of the product offered and
- the postal address and
- an electronic address (e-mail address or URL of a website)
2) Indication of the name, postal address and electronic address of the responsible person
If the manufacturer of a product on offer does not have an establishment in the European Union (EU), online retailers must - in addition to the aforementioned manufacturer information - also include the following in the product offers affected by this
- the name,
- the postal address and
- an electronic address (e-mail address or URL of a website)
3) Indication of images of the product and information about the product type
In future, product offers from online retailers must also contain information that allows the product to be identified. In accordance with the provisions of the EU Product Safety Regulation, this expressly includes information such as
- Images of the product (=product images),
- the type of product and
- other product identifiers
4) Indication of warnings and safety information
In future, online retailers must also include any warnings or safety information in their product offers that must be provided in accordance with the GPSR or other EU regulations.
These warnings and information must be in a language that is easy for consumers to understand. The language is to be determined by the EU Member State in which the product is made available on the market. If the product is made available on the market, i.e. sold and supplied, in several or even all EU Member States, the warnings and safety information must be provided in all the official languages concerned.
In addition, the warnings and safety information must also be affixed to the product or to the product packaging or enclosed in an accompanying document.

This plugin extends the Shopware standard with the option of specifying and controlling the required GPSR data in various places - these points have been implemented in line with the above requirements:
1.) Additional manufacturer information can be specified either directly on the product, with the manufacturer or using dynamic product groups and rules.
2) The person responsible for the EU can be specified either directly on the product, by the manufacturer or by means of dynamic product groups and rules.
3) A field has been added to the product to maintain the product type.
4) Warnings, safety instructions and important information can be specified directly on the product or by means of dynamic product groups and rules.
In the future, the option “Report a problem” will also be implemented so that customers can actively report a problem with a product.
Restriction for variant products
Different manufacturers (or all other information) per variant are currently not taken into account. All information is taken from the main product.
