The ADR Directive establishes a general framework for consumer redress, obliging Member States to ensure that consumers can submit their disputes to ADR entities, and can resolve disputes fairly, quickly and affordably. The ODR Regulation was adopted for the purpose of establishing the European Online Dispute Resolution Platform (the ODR Platform) where consumers and traders could refer their disputes over online purchases to ADR entities.<br><br>On 30 December 2025, the Commission adopted a directive replacing the ODR regulation by means of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>A legislative proposal amending the current ADR Directive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A legislative proposal to repeal the ODR Regulation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A recommendation addressed to online marketplaces and EU trade associations having a dispute resolution mechanism and to Member States.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-relevance\">Relevance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The directive aims to make the ADR framework fit to the digital markets by covering all categories of disputes concerning EU consumer rights, improve the access to ADR in cross-border disputes and simplify ADR procedures to all actors. <br><br>Implementation of the directive in Norway will require amendments to the Norwegian Lov om godkjenning av klageorganer for forbrukersaker (godkjenningsloven) and Forskrift om klageorganer i forbrukersaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-obligations\">Key obligations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The directive removes the obligation on online businesses to provide a link to the ODR platform and manage and email for communication. It further included an extension of the scope of the ADR Directive to all infringement of EU law with consumer protection dimension e.l. related to discriminatory practice, issues related to switching of service providers, emission of pre-contractual information, and remedies related to the right of repair. On 25 September 2024 the Council limited the scope of the ADR directive to disputes stemming from a contract, rather than allowing it to include non-contractual disputes as proposed by the Commission. However, the mandate makes clear that contractual obligations include the stages before the conclusion of a contract (e.g. advertising, information provision) and after the end of a contract (e.g. use of digital content). National authorities can decide whether third-country traders can participate in ADR procedures.<br><br>Member States will designate a European Consumer Centre, consumer organization or another body as ADR contact points to facilitate communication between the parties, assist with the process, provide the parties and ADR entities with general information on EU consumer rights and on the procedural rules applied by the ADR entities identified or inform of other means of redress when a dispute cannot be resolved through an ADR procedure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadline for implementation in the EU (Directive 2025\/2647)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7726,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"tech-insight-date":"2028-03-20T08:31:10","footnotes":""},"tech-insight-category":[93],"tech-insight-jurisdiction":[83,84],"tech-insight-status":[86,96],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.2 (Yoast SEO v24.2) -
