Summary:

The EC Consumer Law Compendium presents the results of a wide-ranging study prepared for the European Commission. This Compendium provides the reader with the necessary information for conducting pan-European cross-border consumer transactions. For the first time, the transposition of 8 key consumer directives (including those on sales, unfair terms, distance and doorstep selling as well as package travel and timeshare) into the national laws of all Member States is analyzed. The findings of this study reveal the substantial differences between the various national implementing measures as a result of utilizing minimum harmonisation clauses and regulatory options.
