India to EU export compliance — where do we start?
Start by naming the role you occupy in the transaction, because every obligation follows from the role rather than from the place of registration. Manufacturer, provider, exporter or platform each carry a different set. Then list every act that touches the product or service, appoint the EU-side entity each act requires, and only after that build the documentation. Companies that start with documentation end up rebuilding it.
What has to be done
- Product side: appoint a responsible person established in the EU whose name and address appear on the product, its packaging or the accompanying documents, and who can hand the technical documentation to a market surveillance authority on request.
- Data side: appoint a GDPR representative in writing in one of the Member States where the affected individuals are, and publish the identity and contact details in the privacy notice.
- Both roles must be real entities capable of receiving correspondence from a regulator. A forwarding mailbox or a group email is not an appointment.
