The UK CBD market continues to grow rapidly, but regulatory clarity has been a challenge. In 2025, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) launched a public consultation on the first authorised CBD foods in Great Britain, setting labelling and safety requirements to protect consumers.

Recent updates to food labelling regulations in the UK and EU introduce new rules on ingredient lists, allergens, nutritional information, and traceability. Importers and brands must ensure their products comply to avoid penalties and maintain market access.

The Product Regulation & Metrology Act 2025 introduces major updates for businesses selling general products in the UK.

These changes affect product safety, labelling, compliance responsibilities, and market surveillance. Staying informed is essential to avoid penalties or market restrictions.

Selling products in the UK or EU means meeting strict compliance obligations. Cosmetics require a Responsible Person (RP), while general consumer products fall under the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR), which requires an EU-based economic operator.

At Conformity Services, we provide both — with a UK base and a European presence, we can act as your Responsible Person for cosmetics and your EU economic operator for GPSR compliance.
