GPSR for art prints, cards and stationery: the low-risk checklist
Good news: prints, cards and stationery are low-risk products, so the documentation can be short. But GPSR still applies to physical products sold to EU consumers, and marketplaces still ask for the basics.
The minimum you need
- Manufacturer details on the product or packaging (back of the card or print sleeve) and in the listing.
- An EU responsible person if you're based outside the EU.
- A batch or type identifier, e.g. a print run code.
- A short risk analysis: paper cuts, small parts on embellished cards (glitter, gems, ribbons), frames with glass, and inks if the product is for children.
- Warnings only where relevant, e.g. embellished cards: "Not suitable for children under 3 years. Contains small parts."
Proportionate, not zero
A one-page risk analysis that honestly concludes the risk is low, with the few measures you take, is far better than nothing. It's also what your EU representative will ask for.
