Dear All, In Blue Guide, it explains "Placing a product on the market requires an offer or an agreement (written or verbal) between two or more legal or natural persons for the transfer of ownership, possession or any other property right concerning the product in question after the stage of manufacture has taken place. This transfer could be for payment or free of charge. It does not require the physical handover of the product."
One of buyers suggests that a fully manufactured good is ‘placed on the market’ when a written or verbal agreement (or offer of an agreement) to transfer ownership or possession or other property rights in the product is exchanged. ‘Placing a good on the market’ means each individual good, not a type of good. It does not require the physical transfer of the good. You can usually provide proof of placing on the market on the basis of any relevant document ordinarily used in business transactions, including: - contracts of sale concerning goods which have already been manufactured and meet the old legal requirements - invoices - documents concerning the shipping of goods for distribution It sounds a bit ridiculous that the EU buyer may receive the goods from the manufacturer in a third country before the deadline of new legislation but still store it at their warehouse for later delivery to EU member countries. The goods are considered to be placed on the market before the deadline even if they arrive in EU member countries after the deadline. Difficult to understand this logic. Can someone share the rationale behind this interpretation.
