France’s consumer protection authority said on Wednesday that three‑quarters of the products it tested from major e‑commerce platforms last year failed to meet EU standards.
The Directorate General for Competition, Consumer Affairs and Fraud Control (DGCCRF) said it had analysed more than 600 products bought from seven foreign online platforms in 2025, triple the number tested in previous years. It found 75% failed to meet EU rules, and 46% were both non-compliant and dangerous.
