Parliament adopted the provisional political agreement with the Council to delay the application of the new rules with 546 votes to 97 and 7 abstentions.
Large operators and traders will now have to respect the obligations of this regulation as of 30 December 2025, and micro- and small enterprises from 30 June 2026. This additional time is intended to help companies around the world implement the rules more smoothly from the date of application, without undermining the objectives of the law.
Following requests from Parliament, the Commission has committed to ensuring both the information system for operators and traders and the proposal for the risk classification of countries and regions will be available as soon as possible, and at the latest by 30 June 2025. With a general review of the regulation expected no later than 30 June 2028, the Commission will analyse additional measures to simplify and reduce the administrative burden for companies.
