RegulatoryType ResponsiblePersons

As a part of General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) requirements effective on December 13th, 2024, sellers operating in, or shipping to, EU-based countries or Northern Ireland are conditionally required to provide Responsible Persons information in their eBay listings if the manufacture is not based in the EU. For more information on GPSR, see General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR).

Hi @3colors-de,

To help sellers comply with the GPSR we made several additions to eBay public APIs:

The Metadata API has a new endpoint to retrieve relevant regulatory policies, and a new endpoint to return product safety ENUMs (release notes here)
The Media API has three new endpoints that support uploading documents so that Sellers will be able to attach product safety documents to their listings (release notes here)
The Trading API and the Inventory API now support new regulatory types that Sellers are required by law to provide:

Add EU Manufacturer and/or EU Responsible Person information
Add product safety pictograms and statements
Attach product safety documents and instruction manuals that have been uploaded to eBay through the media API
See release notes for Trading API here and Inventory API here.
