化學品 - REACH/CLP

REACH 是一項針對化學品及其安全使用的歐洲法規(guī)。它涉及到化學物質的注冊、評估、授權和限制。根據(jù) REACH 法規(guī)，制造商和進口商可能需要從事的其中一項工作是，收集其商品中所含化學物質的特定屬性信息，然后在歐洲化學品管理局 (ECHA) 的中央數(shù)據(jù)庫中登記該信息。

除了 REACH 之外，您的商品可能還需要遵守《物質和混合物分類、標簽和包裝法規(guī)》（CLP 法規(guī)）。CLP 法規(guī)中涉及的分類標準和貼標規(guī)則與聯(lián)合國的《全球化學品統(tǒng)一分類和標簽制度》(GHS) 一致。GHS 所基于的原則是，同一危害品在全球范圍內(nèi)的描述和標簽都應該保持一致。

如果您正在銷售電氣或電子設備，可能需要遵守歐盟有關危險品使用限制 (RoHS) 及電氣和/或電子設備 (WEEE) 廢品收集和回收的法規(guī)。

以下是您可能要遵守的 WEEE 法規(guī)要求：

• 在商品上顯示“打叉的帶輪垃圾桶”符號。該標志表明商品不得作為常規(guī)垃圾扔棄，而應交給指定的回收中心處理。

消費者權利

請注意，此處介紹的這些消費者權利僅供說明之用，不構成任何法律建議，也不能替代您與亞馬遜或直接與消費者之間達成的任何合同義務。

取消權利

除一些例外情況外，如果歐盟的買家一次性在線購買了多件商品，但是每件商品單獨發(fā)貨，則買家有權在收到訂單中最后一件商品后的 14 天內(nèi)取消購買訂單中的任一件商品。即使您沒有任何過錯，也必須對此商品辦理退款并承擔運費。您無須退回所有費用，除非下列任何一種情況屬實：

1. 您有過錯。

2. 您同意為買家承擔所有費用。

3. 您未向買家披露或告知您根據(jù)法律應向其披露的費用。

例如，您必須向買家退回普通運費，但不退回買家選擇的服務所產(chǎn)生的任何額外費用，例如，加急配送費或禮品包裝費。同樣，如果您明確告知買家，則您無須承擔向您返回商品的費用。

請注意，這些消費者權利是您與亞馬遜達成（例如 30 天退貨保證）或直接與消費者達成的合約性退貨權利之外的附加權利。

其他資源

根據(jù)歐盟消費者保護規(guī)則，商品賣家在歐盟銷售時必須提供 2 年法律保證。這意味著，在商品送達后的 2 年內(nèi)，您必須對有缺陷的商品進行維修、更換或賠償。大部分歐盟成員國會假定商品送達后 6 個月內(nèi)出現(xiàn)的任何明顯缺陷為在送達時既已存在，因此您必須負責維修、更換或賠償。6 個月后，在大多數(shù)歐盟成員國境內(nèi)（法國除外），您可以要求買家證明商品在送達時已存在缺陷。您可以在以下歐盟委員會鏈接中找到有關法律保證的更多信息。

您除了有義務根據(jù)處理之外，還應履行本法律保證義務。

Chemicals - REACH/CLP

REACH is the European regulation on chemicals and their safe use. It deals with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemical substances. Under the REACH regulation, one of the things manufacturers and importers may be required to do is to gather certain information on the properties of the chemical substances in their products, and to register the information in a central database run by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA).

In addition to REACH, the Regulation for Classification, Labeling, and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP Regulation) may apply to your products. The CLP Regulation incorporates the classification criteria and labeling rules agreed at the United Nations level, the so-called Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). GHS is based on the principle that the same hazards should be described and labeled in the same way all around the world.

Consumer rights

Please note that these consumer rights are described for illustrative purposes only and do not constitute any legal advice or substitute for any contractual obligation that you may have agreed upon with Amazon or directly with the consumer.

With some exceptions, consumers in the European Union have the right to cancel a purchase of a product bought online within 14 days of receiving the final item of the order, if they purchased multiple items together that were delivered separately. Even when there is no error from your side, you must refund the item and the shipping costs. You may not have to refund all costs unless one of the following is true:

1. There is an error on your side.

2. You agreed to bear all costs for the consumer.

3. You failed to disclose or inform the customer about the costs that you are legally required to disclose.

For example, you must refund the normal cost of sending the item to the consumer but not any extra costs for services that the customer chooses, such as expedited delivery or gift-wrapping. Similarly, when you expressly inform the consumer, you don't have to bear the cost of returning the product to you.

Please note that these consumer rights are in addition to any contractual return rights that you may have agreed upon with Amazon (e.g. 30-day return guarantee) or directly with the consumer.

Under EU consumer protection rules, the seller of a product must offer a 2-year Legal Warranty when selling in the EU. This means that, during the period of 2 years from the delivery of the product, you must repair, exchange or reimburse a defective product. In most EU countries, any defect that becomes apparent within 6 months from delivery is presumed to have existed at the time of delivery and therefore you must repair, exchange or reimburse it. After 6 months, in most EU countries (France excluded), you can request the customer to prove that the defect already existed at the time of delivery. You can find more information regarding the Legal Warranty in the following link from the European Commission.

This Legal Warranty obligation is in addition to your obligation to process customer returns according to Amazon Return Policy.
