Recall form for dangerous products
In accordance with EU legislation, economic operators must ensure that the products they place on the market are safe. Economic operators who discover that one of their products is dangerous must take measures to prevent possible accidents, even being able to recall the product, if it is already in the possession of consumers.
In this sense, in order to support economic operators when publishing a recall notice, the European Commission recommends using the following model Recall Form for dangerous products:
Recall form for dangerous products (in DOC format)
Recall form for dangerous products (in PPT format)
