Description
Since the EU General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR) came into force on 13th December UK businesses have been working hard to navigate the new rules. Lessons have been learned along the way and as many questions have been raised as there are answers. We now know a bit more about how GPSR works in practice for UK Businesses sending goods into the EU and thought it would be a good time to share that working knowledge with you.
