Stage enactedUpdated 7d ago

This law updates the Dutch Civil Code to align national legislation with EU rules on unfair commercial practices. It aims to protect consumers from deceptive or aggressive marketing tactics used by businesses within the internal market, ensuring fairer competition and more transparent trading. This legislation primarily affects businesses and traders operating in the Netherlands, as it prohibits misleading advertising and unfair sales methods. Consumers benefit from stronger legal protections against fraudulent commercial behavior.
