EU importer and Indian manufacturer duties
Who is responsible when an Indian manufacturer sells through an EU importer?
The manufacturer designs, assesses and documents the product. The importer verifies that work, adds its own details and keeps records. A private-label buyer or modifier can become the manufacturer in law.
What an Indian company should prepare
- Allocate manufacturer, importer, distributor and responsible-person duties in writing.
- Ensure the EU importer completes its checks before placing the product on the market.
- Agree who holds the technical file, answers authorities and funds corrective action.
