Official sources and legal context

Read the Regulation and Commission guidance.

Official sources

Use the Regulation as the source for the 27 September 2026 date, the distinction between the legal-guarantee notice and GARAN, the official designs, and the limited editable GARAN fields. The European Commission’s practical guidance and official files are the accompanying source materials.

Read sources carefully

These sources provide regulated presentation material, not a legal decision for a particular store. Review your own goods, markets, pre-contract information, and sales flow; seek qualified advice where a legal assessment is needed.
