Enter an HS code and get an indicative estimate of the product safety rules that may apply — including GPSR, sector directives, and the EU Responsible Person obligation.
This free tool gives an indicative direction based on your HS code: which product safety category may apply, whether an EU Responsible Person may be needed, and what marking or documentation may be required. The outcome is an aid to your own assessment — not a legal determination and not a substitute for compliance advice.
This is an indicative estimate based on the HS code alone. It is not a legal determination, not a conformity assessment and not compliance advice, and the outcome may be incomplete or incorrect for your specific product. Import8 (Trade8 B.V.) does not act as Responsible Person, authorised representative or in any other legal role, and does not offer that service; responsibility for compliance remains entirely with the importer or manufacturer. To the extent permitted by law, Trade8 B.V. accepts no liability for any damage arising from the use of, or reliance on, this outcome, including fines, recalls, seizure or missed obligations. Use of this free tool is subject to our terms and conditions.
We use your email address solely as a hashed key to prevent abuse of this free check (legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We retain your email address as a hashed key only; your IP address is used in unhashed form as a counter key; both are deleted automatically after 24 hours. We do not email you and do not add you to any mailing list. See our privacy policy.
Log in to run a GPSR Check based on a description or photo.
Some regimes are listed side by side because one replaces the other on a future date. Check the applicability period shown: the regime whose period is currently running is the one that applies today.
Even where sector-specific legislation applies, GPSR (Regulation (EU) 2023/988) may continue to apply to safety aspects not covered by that legislation (Art. 2(1) GPSR).
Validate your existing HS codes in bulk with the free Sanity Check.
No. The GPSR Check gives an indicative estimate based on your HS code and does not constitute a legal determination. Always verify the outcome for your specific product and situation, if needed with a compliance specialist.
No. Import8 does not act as Responsible Person or in any other legal role and does not take over this responsibility. The GPSR Check only shows whether a Responsible Person may be required — appointing one remains the responsibility of the importer or manufacturer.
The Sanity Check validates whether your HS code is correct. The GPSR Check goes a step further: given a (presumably correct) HS code, which product safety rules — GPSR and sector directives such as Toy Safety, EMC, RED, or Machinery — may apply.
