What it is
PTAC (Patērētāju tiesību aizsardzības centrs, the Consumer Rights Protection Centre) is Latvia’s authority for consumer protection, product safety and market surveillance.
Why it matters for compliance
For products sold in Latvia, PTAC is the authority that can inspect products, request technical documentation and act against non-compliant or unsafe goods. It is the Latvian enforcement contact a consumer-product brand is most likely to meet; standards sit with LVS.
How to use it
- Keep your technical file and DoC ready for a documentation request.
- Use PTAC guidance for Latvian product-safety expectations.
- Pair it with LVS for the standards behind conformity.
Good to know
National authorities across the EU cooperate and share findings, so a problem identified in Latvia can prompt action in other Member States too.
