Checklist

Responsible Person Records To Gather

Keep one row per product, product family, or listing group. Use source URLs and dates so the review can be repeated without guessing later.

Product scope

Listing URL, SKU, product family, product type, EU/EEA availability, and whether the same operator details apply to multiple listings.

Manufacturer basis

Manufacturer name, postal address, electronic contact, source URL, product-line match, and missing-info notes.

Operator role

Economic operator or responsible-person name, contact details, role type, product scope, and the source used to verify each field.

Authority to use details

Record whether the seller has a reliable basis for using the details, whether permission is needed, and whether qualified advice is required.

Platform action

Etsy field to update, listing status, country availability decision, products waiting on records, and items to pause from EU/EEA sales.

Review trail

Source title, source URL, date checked, reviewer, unresolved questions, next review date, and any product-category exceptions to verify.

Verify before relying
