Penalties

What non-compliance can cost in Slovakia

The maximum reported penalty in Slovakia is Up to €30,000 — plus corrective measures. Penalties are set nationally under Article 30 of the directive, which requires them to be effective, proportionate and dissuasive.

This figure is reported: it appears in industry references rather than confirmed primary legislation. Confirm against national law before relying on it.

Complaints & enforcement

How a complaint reaches a penalty in Slovakia

Scope

Who must comply

The obligations are the same EU-wide: any business placing covered products or providing covered services to consumers in Slovakia is in scope, including companies based outside the EU. Micro-enterprises are exempt for services only. See the full scope and exemptions on the overview.
