Overview

Dates alone do not deliver compliance. Workstreams do. Use this page to translate GPSR milestones into an execution calendar: what must be ready in product, ops, marketplace, and legal workflows, and what evidence you should be able to export at each stage. This complements the timeline view on the main GPSR hub.

Section 1

Key dates to anchor your plan

The GPSR text and related implementing and delegated measures drive concrete readiness points, including recall notices, online marketplace registration, Safety Gate workflows, and later Commission reviews.

Treat these as forcing functions to build capabilities, not as simple go live checkboxes.

  • 10 May 2023: GPSR adopted. 23 May 2023: published in the Official Journal. 13 December 2024: GPSR applies and repeals the old GPSD.
  • 27 May 2024 and 28 May 2024: recall notice template (EU) 2024/1435 and marketplace interface rules (EU) 2024/1459 published, both applying from 13 December 2024.
  • 24 June 2024 and 10 October 2024: consumer-reporting rules (EU) 2024/1740 and single-contact-point rules (EU) 2024/2639 published for the broader Safety Gate system.
  • 13 December 2026: Commission report due on the interconnection between the market-surveillance information system and the Safety Gate Portal.
  • 13 December 2027: Commission assessment due on the Union notification system for illegal content removal by online marketplaces.
  • 13 December 2029: Commission evaluation due on the Regulation overall and on the effectiveness of penalties.
Section 2

Workstream calendar (what to build first)

Most teams should sequence work by dependency: you can't execute a recall without traceability, and you can't notify without a data pack and tooling access.

Use a workstream calendar with named owners and measurable acceptance criteria.

  • Workstream A: scope + role mapping (catalog, exclusions, RACI).
  • Workstream B: documentation + traceability (evidence pack + supplier inputs).
  • Workstream C: incident/recall playbook (triage, comms, effectiveness).
  • Workstream D: Safety Gate/Safety Business Gateway readiness (access, templates, logging).
  • Workstream E: marketplace program (Article 22 registration, optional 2024/1459 interface linkage, notice and takedown SLAs, logs).

Teams working on EU GPSR can keep owners, evidence, and next steps aligned without copying this guide into separate documents.

Section 3

Evidence you should have ready by each milestone

GPSR programs get tested during incidents. Your calendar should include evidence readiness checkpoints.

If you can't export evidence quickly, you haven't built the program yet.

  • Evidence index + owners + refresh cadence (single source-of-truth).
  • Recall notice template generator inputs (identifiers, hazards, Article 37 remedies, channels, accessibility checks).
  • Notification packs and submission logs (what was submitted, when, completeness checks, and follow-up handling).
