SUMMARY:Germany battery law (BattG → BattDG): Germany: battery producer r
 egistrations had to be converted from BattG to BattDG
DESCRIPTION:Producers who place batteries (including batteries built into d
 evices\, e.g. e-bikes\, tools\, electronics) on the German market must be 
 registered with Stiftung EAR. When BattDG replaced BattG\, every existing 
 registration had to be actively converted to the new system\; producers wh
 o missed the 15 January 2026 deadline had their registration revoked retro
 actively to 1 January 2026 and faced an automatic sales ban until re-regis
 tered.\n\nWho is affected: Any company that manufactures or imports batter
 ies\, or imports/sells products containing batteries\, into Germany\, incl
 uding small e-commerce sellers.\n\nWhat to do: Confirm your Stiftung EAR /
  LUCID-equivalent battery registration is active under BattDG (correct cat
 egory\, valid OfH assignment). If you newly start selling battery-containi
 ng products\, register with Stiftung EAR before placing them on the market
  — do not wait for an annual deadline\, registration is a market-entry p
 recondition.\n\nPenalty: Loss of registration and an automatic sales ban (
 Vertriebsverbot) in Germany for unregistered/non-converted producers.\n\nN
 ote: The Batt-EU-AnpG replaced the old Batteriegesetz (BattG) with the new
  Batterie-Durchführungsgesetz (BattDG) on 2025-10-07\, implementing EU Ba
 ttery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 at national level. Existing producer regis
 trations at Stiftung EAR had to be actively adapted/converted to BattDG re
 quirements (correct battery category\, an approved Organisation für Herst
 ellerverantwortung\, complete master data) by 2026-01-15.\n\nStatus: In fo

SUMMARY:Germany NIS2 (NIS2UmsuCG): Germany: NIS2-regulated entities must re
 gister with the BSI
DESCRIPTION:Since the NIS2-Umsetzungs- und Cybersicherheitsstärkungsgesetz
  (NIS2UmsuCG) entered into force\, 'particularly important' and 'important
 ' entities under the rewritten BSIG (energy\, transport\, health\, digital
  infrastructure\, manufacturing of critical products\, and other listed se
 ctors\, generally 50+ employees or >€10m turnover\, some sub-sectors reg
 ardless of size) must self-assess their status and register with the BSI w
 ithin 3 months\, providing name/legal form\, contact details\, IP ranges a
 nd the relevant sectors.\n\nWho is affected: Medium and large companies (a
 nd some smaller companies in specific sectors such as trust services\, DNS
  or public electronic communications) operating in the 18 NIS2 sectors lis
 ted in BSIG Annex 1/2.\n\nWhat to do: Determine whether your company falls
  into a regulated sector and size band. If it does and you have not yet re
 gistered\, register with the BSI immediately via the BSI registration port
 al\; then begin implementing the risk-management measures required under 
 §30 BSIG.\n\nPenalty: Fines up to €500\,000 for failing to register (§
 65 Abs. 5 Nr. 5 BSIG\, referencing §33)\; substantially higher fines (up 
 to €10m or 2% of global annual turnover) apply for breaches of the under
 lying risk-management and reporting duties themselves.\n\nNote: The NIS2Um
 suCG (rewriting the BSI-Gesetz) was published in the Bundesgesetzblatt on 
 2025-12-05 and entered into force on 2025-12-06\; §33 BSIG then gave affe
 cted entities 3 months to register\, i.e. by 2026-03-06. The BSI subsequen
 tly allowed late registration up to 2026-07-31 as a grace period. Both dat
 es have passed as of lastVerified\; kept for reference and because the sam
 e 3-month registration clock also applies to any entity that newly falls i
 nto scope later.\n\nStatus: In force\nhttps://eudeadlines.eu/deadline/de-n

SUMMARY:Germany pay transparency (EntgTranspG reform): Germany: transpositi
 on of the EU Pay Transparency Directive is overdue
DESCRIPTION:Directive (EU) 2023/970 required pay-transparency and gender-pa
 y-gap-reporting rules to be in German law by 7 June 2026 (pre-interview pa
 y ranges\, a ban on asking salary history\, workers' right to average pay 
 information\, and gender pay-gap reporting for 150+ staff). Germany missed
  this deadline\; the existing 2017 Entgelttransparenzgesetz remains in for
 ce in its unreformed\, weaker form (only a right to request comparative pa
 y information in companies with 200+ staff) until a reform act is passed.\
 n\nWho is affected: All employers for the eventual transparency/reporting 
 duties\; currently the unreformed EntgTranspG already gives employees in c
 ompanies with more than 200 employees a right to request pay-comparison in
 formation.\n\nWhat to do: Do not wait for the German act: start building g
 ender-neutral job categories and pay bands now\, since the EU directive's 
 substantive obligations will apply once Germany transposes (expected durin
 g 2026-2027). Track BMBFSFJ announcements for the Referentenentwurf and Bu
 ndestag timeline.\n\nPenalty: To be set by the German transposition act\; 
 the current EntgTranspG carries no general fine regime\, only individual d
 isclosure/compensation claims.\n\nNote: 2026-06-07 was the EU transpositio
 n deadline for Directive (EU) 2023/970. The BMBFSFJ's expert commission on
  a low-bureaucracy transposition delivered its final report on 2025-11-07\
 , aiming to start the legislative process (Referentenentwurf) in early 202
 6\, but no enacted German law reforming the Entgelttransparenzgesetz (Entg
 TranspG) has been found on official channels as of lastVerified. Status is
  therefore recorded as delayed rather than a new confirmed national date\;
  do not treat this as the date obligations start in Germany until a nation
 al act is passed.\n\nStatus: Delayed\nhttps://eudeadlines.eu/deadline/de-p

SUMMARY:Pay Transparency Directive: Pay Transparency: baseline duties (pay 
 ranges\, no salary-history questions\, right to pay information) apply to 
 every employer
DESCRIPTION:Directive (EU) 2023/970 requires every employer in the EU\, wha
 tever its size\, to give job applicants the initial pay or pay range for t
 he role before the interview or in the job ad\, and bans asking applicants
  about their pay history. Workers also get the right to ask\, in writing\,
  for their own pay level and the average pay level by sex for people doing
  the same or equal-value work.\n\nWho is affected: Every employer with at 
 least one worker in an EU country\, including micro and small companies 
 — unlike the gender-pay-gap-reporting duty\, these baseline duties are n
 ot limited to larger employers.\n\nWhat to do: Set an objective\, gender-n
 eutral pay range for every open role and share it in the job ad or before 
 the first interview. Remove pay-history questions from application forms a
 nd interview scripts. Set up a simple process so a worker who asks in writ
 ing gets their own pay and the relevant average pay level within a reasona
 ble time. Check whether your country's transposition law has been adopted 
 yet — the underlying EU duty applies regardless.\n\nPenalty: Set nationa
 lly by each Member State’s transposition law\; the Directive requires ef
 fective\, proportionate and dissuasive penalties\, plus compensation claim
 s with a reversed burden of proof once a pay gap is shown.\n\nNote: Direct
 ive (EU) 2023/970\, Arts. 5 and 7 (transposition deadline: Art. 34). These
  baseline duties carry no employer-size threshold\, unlike Art. 9's gender
 -pay-gap-report duty\, which only binds employers with 100+ staff (see pay
 -transparency-first-gender-pay-gap-report).\n\nStatus: In force\nhttps://e

SUMMARY:EU Customs Reform: Removal of the €150 customs duty-exemption thr
 eshold: transitional flat-rate duty on low-value parcels
DESCRIPTION:Until mid-2026\, parcels worth up to €150 sent to EU consumer
 s from outside the EU were exempt from customs duty (VAT has already been 
 due on them since 2021). Council Regulation (EU) 2026/382 removed that exe
 mption and\, from 1 July 2026\, applies a flat transitional duty of €3 p
 er item to such low-value consignments\, ahead of full ad-valorem tariffs 
 once the EU Customs Data Hub is operational (targeted around mid-2028).\n\
 nWho is affected: Online sellers and marketplaces that ship low-value parc
 els directly to EU consumers from outside the EU\, and the consumers who r
 eceive them\; does not affect goods already inside the EU or ordinary B2B 
 shipments cleared through full customs declarations.\n\nWhat to do: If you
  ship low-value parcels into the EU from outside\, update pricing\, checko
 ut and customs paperwork to account for the €3-per-item flat duty from 1
  July 2026\, and plan for full item-specific tariffs once the Customs Data
  Hub replaces the flat rate (targeted mid-2028). If you use IOSS for VAT\,
  check with your carrier or customs broker on how the new duty is collecte
 d alongside VAT.\n\n\nNote: Council Regulation (EU) 2026/382 (adopted 2026
 -02-11\, OJ 2026-02-18) deletes the customs duty exemption for consignment
 s up to €150 and imposes a transitional flat duty of €3 per item from 
 2026-07-01 until 2028-07-01\, when the EU Customs Data Hub is due to apply
  normal\, item-specific tariffs instead.\n\nStatus: In force\nhttps://eude

 0.01% in rinse-off products. New cosmetic products placed on the market fr
 om 31 July 2026 must use the expanded list\; stock already on the market b
 efore that date can still be sold until 31 July 2028.\n\nWho is affected: 
 Manufacturers\, importers and 'responsible persons' for cosmetic products 
 sold in the EU (skincare\, haircare\, fragrance\, make-up\, toiletries) 
 — cosmetics have their own sectoral regime and are not covered by the Ge
 neral Product Safety Regulation.\n\nWhat to do: Get updated safety assessm
 ents and full fragrance-composition data from your formulators or supplier
 s\, check for the newly regulated allergens\, and update ingredient lists 
 and labels for any product placed on the market from 31 July 2026. Plan se
 ll-through of pre-2026-07-31 stock by 31 July 2028\, and flag SKUs that wi

 223/2009\; can include product withdrawal or recall.\n\nNote: Commission R
 egulation (EU) 2023/1545 amending Regulation (EC) 1223/2009. New products 
 placed on the market from 2026-07-31 must comply\; products already placed

SUMMARY:Cyber Resilience Act: CRA: mandatory reporting of actively exploite
 d vulnerabilities and severe incidents to ENISA/CSIRT
DESCRIPTION:Manufacturers of products with digital elements (hardware and s
 oftware\, including SaaS-connected devices and standalone apps) must repor
 t actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe security incidents through
  ENISA's single reporting platform: early warning within 24 hours\, full n
 otification within 72 hours\, final report within 14 days (vulnerabilities
 ) or one month (incidents). It applies to products already on the market.\
 n\nWho is affected: Manufacturers that place a 'product with digital eleme
 nts' on the EU market as a distinct product — connected/embedded hardwar
 e\, distributable/installable software\, firmware\, and apps a manufacture
 r ships with a device — including small vendors and commercially-run ope
 n source. A pure browser-delivered SaaS with no distributed installable pr
 oduct is generally OUT of CRA scope per Recitals 11-12 (standalone remote 
 data-processing solutions are excluded)\; the flags below can only approxi
 mate this distinction\, so read this note rather than relying on the tags 
 alone if you sell software purely as a hosted service.\n\nWhat to do: Set 
 up an internal process to detect and triage exploited vulnerabilities and 
 incidents in your products. Register on the ENISA single reporting platfor
 m and identify your national CSIRT. Draft report templates and an on-call 
 rota so you can meet the 24h/72h clocks. Inform affected users of fixes.\n
 \nPenalty: Up to €15M or 2.5% of worldwide turnover\n\n\nStatus: Confirm

 g\, and requires sustainability labels to come from a certification scheme
  or a public authority rather than being self-created. It also bans planne
 d-obsolescence practices and requires clearer product durability/reparabil
 ity information.\n\nWho is affected: Any business making environmental or 
 sustainability claims\, or displaying sustainability labels\, on products 
 or in marketing aimed at EU consumers — most directly online retailers a
 nd manufacturers/importers of physical goods.\n\nWhat to do: Audit product
  pages\, packaging and marketing copy for generic green claims and either 
 substantiate them against a recognised standard or remove them. Stop using
  offset-based 'carbon neutral' claims without the required disclosure. Che
 ck that any sustainability label used comes from a certification scheme or
  public authority\, not a self-created label. Add durability/reparability 
 information to product listings.\n\nPenalty: Set nationally under the Unfa
