Fields follow the mandatory elements of Art. 36 GPSR and the official template (IR 2024/1435). The live checker flags language that authorities reject.

Product identification Art. 36(2)(b)

Company / brand name

Product name & model

Batch / serial / barcode & where to find them

Where & when it was sold

Product photo (optional — shown on the notice)

Stays in your browser. The template requires an image; a placeholder is used if none is added.

The hazard Art. 36(2)(c)

Describe the hazard and what can happen

State the risk plainly. The GPSR bans wording that plays down the danger — the checker below flags it live.

Remedies offered Art. 37 — at least two

A recall must offer consumers a choice of at least two of the following. Repair-only is a common compliance failure.

Repair — fix the product free of charge Replacement — swap for a safe equivalent Refund — reimburse the price paid

Only one remedy is possible because the others are genuinely impossible or disproportionate (Art. 37 exception — you must be able to justify this).

What consumers must do Art. 36(2)(d)

Actions the consumer should take

Contact & reference Art. 36(2)(f)

Phone / hotline

Recall reference

Notice date

Step 4 · Preview & export

Print-ready notice on the official template. Choose a language, then export.

Step 5 · Safety Business Gateway filing checklist

Report corrective measures and accidents to the authorities via the Commission's Safety Business Gateway — the GPSR requires it "without undue delay".
