The EU legal guarantee notice, on every product page.

What the law asks
One notice, fixed by the EU, in the shopper’s language.
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1960 sets out a harmonised notice that tells consumers about their minimum two-year legal guarantee for goods sold in the EU. Sellers must show it before purchase, and none of its elements may be edited.
The same regulation defines the GARAN label, for products whose producer gives a commercial guarantee of durability of more than two years, free of charge, covering the whole good.
Assay is a tool for displaying these artefacts. It is not legal advice. Read the regulation on EUR-Lex.

Everything the notice needs, and the GARAN label when it applies.
Every EU language, matched for you
The notice follows each shopper’s storefront language across all 24 languages the EU publishes it in. A fallback you choose covers everyone else.
The official artwork, never redrawn
The regulation says no element of the notice may be edited. Assay shows the image published in the Official Journal, exactly as published.
GARAN labels that stay lawful
Set the durability guarantee years, brand and model per product. A label only appears when all three are set and the guarantee runs longer than two years.
Bulk apply across a catalogue
Label a whole collection or tag in one step, see what would change before anything is written, and clear a change with one click.
A live preview of what shoppers see
Settings shows the notice and label drawn from the same files your storefront uses. Leave out gift cards, services or anything else by type or tag.
No weight on your storefront
The notice ships as a theme app extension and the artwork is served by Shopify’s CDN, so shoppers’ browsers never contact our servers.

A worklist for GARAN labels
Every product with its status and three fields. Rules are checked as you type, so a two-year guarantee is caught before it is saved. Edits save together from Shopify’s own save bar, with Undo.

Questions merchants ask
More in the help centre, or email [email protected].
Do I have to show this notice?
If you sell goods to consumers in the EU, yes. Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1960 requires the harmonised legal guarantee notice from 27 September 2026, before the contract is concluded, which for an online shop means on the product page. Whether and where it applies to your business is a question for your own advisers; Assay is the tool that displays it.
Can I change the wording or the design?
No, and neither can we. The regulation says none of the notice’s elements may be edited. Assay chooses the language and the size, nothing else.
Which language will my shoppers see?
The one your storefront is showing them, when it is one of the 24 official EU languages. Otherwise the fallback language you choose in Settings. You can also fix one language for every shopper.
What is the GARAN label, and do I need it?
GARAN is the EU’s label for a producer’s commercial guarantee of durability: free of charge, covering the whole good, for more than two years. It is optional, and only lawful when such a guarantee exists. Most shops can skip it.
Does Assay slow my store down?
No. The notice is a theme app extension, its artwork comes from Shopify’s CDN, and the storefront never calls our servers.
What does Assay have access to?
Your products, to read them and to save the GARAN fields on them. Nothing about your customers or orders, and it never edits your theme’s files.
