The regulation of product safety in the UK is the responsibility of market surveillance authorities (MSAs), including OPSS and local trading standards authorities. Where MSAs identify that a product is unsafe through investigations, or where they have been notified by a business that a product they have placed on the market is unsafe, this must be notified on the Product Safety Database.

Products which present a serious or high risk and those which have been recalled are published on the above list. MSAs may also submit other products for publication by notifying this to the UK Product Safety Contact Point within the OPSS Incident Management team ukproductsafetycp@beis.gov.uk.

If you are a consumer and need to report a dangerous product or seek advice on your consumer rights, please contact Citizens Advice if you are based in England or Wales, Consumer Advice if you are based in Scotland or Consumerline if you are based in Northern Ireland.

If you are a business and need to notify your MSA of an unsafe product you have placed on the market, please read the guidance on business notifications of unsafe and noncompliant products.
