GPSR Business Address and Privacy Guide
Review manufacturer and EU responsible person address display requirements without promising that a PO Box or virtual address is always sufficient.
Direct answerGPSR distance-sale offers require postal and electronic contact details; whether a PO Box or service address is sufficient depends on the operator role and applicable rules.
What this page is for
Product compliance outputs, not a certificate.
Handmade, micro-business, Etsy, and home-based sellers concerned about publishing contact details on EU-facing listings.
Privacy concerns are real, but replacing required operator details with an unverified PO Box, mailbox, or virtual address can create a second compliance problem.
This is a compliance workflow, risk discovery, and evidence management tool. It is not legal advice, not a legal certification, and manual review is required.

Evidence-based guidance
What can be stated safely, and what still needs verification.
Supported statements
- GPSR Article 19 requires the online offer to clearly and visibly show the manufacturer's postal and electronic address.
- If the manufacturer is outside the EU, the offer must also show the EU responsible person's name, postal address, and electronic address.
- The Regulation does not state that every PO Box, mailbox, or virtual-office address automatically satisfies those duties.
Manual decision checklist
- Identify whether you are the manufacturer, importer, distributor, or another operator before choosing which details to display.
- Confirm the address is valid for the relevant operator and can reliably receive official correspondence and product-safety requests.
- Check marketplace rules and the law of the relevant Member State before using a PO Box or third-party address service.
- Do not display a third party as an EU responsible person unless a valid mandate and service relationship exist.
