What it is
In Greece, general product safety and consumer protection are overseen by the Ministry of Development, which administers product-safety rules and coordinates market surveillance of industrial products through its directorates and the General Secretariat for Industry.
Why it matters for compliance
For products sold in Greece, the Ministry of Development is the authority behind product-safety enforcement and consumer protection — where dangerous products are addressed and corrective action originates. Standards sit separately with ELOT.
How to use it
- Use the ministry’s resources to understand Greek product-safety and consumer obligations.
- Keep your technical file and DoC ready for a documentation request.
- Pair it with ELOT for the standards behind conformity.
Good to know
National authorities across the EU cooperate and share findings, so a problem identified in Greece can prompt action in other Member States too.
