GPSR Responsible Person Service for Non-EU Sellers

EU Responsible Person Under GPSR 2023/988 — Amazon, Etsy & Shopify Compliance

The General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR, EU 2023/988) requires all non-EU manufacturers and sellers to appoint a GPSR Responsible Person — an EU-based entity legally responsible for product safety compliance. The GPSR Responsible Person's contact details must appear on the product, packaging, and all EU marketplace listings including Amazon, Etsy, eBay, and Shopify.

AuraDPP acts as GPSR Responsible Person for non-EU sellers from €99/month. Our registered address in Slovakia (EU member state) satisfies the GPSR Article 4 requirement. We handle all communications with EU market surveillance authorities, maintain the required technical documentation, and issue the Declaration of Conformity support documentation.

What is a GPSR Responsible Person?

Under GPSR Article 4, a Responsible Person is an EU-based natural or legal person who: (1) ensures the product complies with EU safety requirements; (2) maintains the technical documentation and Declaration of Conformity; (3) cooperates with EU market surveillance authorities; (4) takes corrective action when products are found to be unsafe. The Responsible Person's name, registered address, and contact details must appear on the product or its packaging.

GPSR Responsible Person vs EU Authorized Representative

The terms are used interchangeably in practice. Amazon uses "Responsible Person" in Seller Central; EU legislation uses "Authorised Representative" (GPSR Art. 4) and "Economic Operator" (GPSR Art. 9). AuraDPP satisfies all three definitions with a single service. Our EU address covers Amazon Seller Central requirements, Etsy listing requirements, and the formal GPSR legal requirement simultaneously.
