Appoint an EU Responsible Person

GPSR Compliance & EU Product Registration with EaseCert

Ensure Your Business is Linked to an Authorised Representative in the EU

Under the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR), products sold in the EU must have an officially designated Responsible Person to ensure compliance with safety standards and act as a point of contact for EU market surveillance authorities. If the manufacturer, importer, or distributor is based outside the EU (for example companies in the US, UK, Switzerland, or China), an Authorised Representative must be appointed as economic operator to fulfill these responsibilities. The Authorised Representative can act as Responsible Person when agreed in a mandate, for example, when you order our service.

EaseCert is officially registered as an Authorised Representative in the EU Safety Business Gateway with its office in Germany. This allows us to link your business to our registration, ensuring compliance and providing a recognized legal presence in the EU as economic operator.

How EaseCert Registers Your Product in the EU Safety Gate

Step 1: Submission of Product Information

To begin the registration process, you will need to provide key product details, including:

• Product Name and Type – A clear identification of the product being registered.
• Brand and Model Information – Including SKU, EAN, or any unique product identifier.
• Manufacturer’s Details – Name, address, and contact information of the original manufacturer.

Step 2: Compliance Document Upload

EaseCert will assist in compiling and verifying the necessary compliance documentation, which may include:

• Declaration of Conformity (DoC) – A formal statement confirming the product meets all applicable EU safety regulations.
• Risk Assessment Report – A documented evaluation of potential hazards associated with the product and the measures taken to mitigate them.
• Test Reports & Certification – Supporting documents from third-party testing laboratories confirming compliance with relevant EU safety standards.

Step 3: Linking Your Business to EaseCert in the EU Safety Gate

Once the necessary product information and compliance documents are collected, EaseCert will:
