What it is
The DGCCRF (Direction générale de la concurrence, de la consommation et de la répression des fraudes) is the French authority for competition, consumer protection and fraud control, part of the Ministry of the Economy. It is a primary market-surveillance authority for consumer products in France.
Why it matters for compliance
For products sold in France, the DGCCRF is the authority that can inspect products, request technical documentation, test, and act against non-compliant or unsafe goods. It is the French enforcement contact a consumer-product brand is most likely to meet.
How to use it
- Keep your technical file and DoC ready for a documentation request.
- Use DGCCRF guidance for French product-safety and consumer expectations.
- Treat it as the French point of contact for product market surveillance.
Good to know
National authorities across the EU cooperate and share findings, so a problem identified in France can prompt action in other Member States too.
