EU to impose fines on online platforms importing unsafe products

The European Union has agreed new customs rules allowing member states to fine online platforms that repeatedly import unsafe or non-compliant products, as part of efforts to curb a surge in low-value goods from China. Platforms breaching safety standards could face fines of up to 4% of annual import value, rising to 6% for repeat offences, lose fast-track customs privileges, or ultimately have their websites blocked. The reforms also remove duty exemptions for goods under €150 and introduce new levies on low-value imports, while requiring greater data reporting through a centralised EU customs authority from 2028. The measures aim to strengthen enforcement and address concerns that existing systems cannot cope with the volume of direct-to-consumer shipments, particularly from marketplaces such as Temu and Shein.
