Key aspects

  • Decree-Law 109-G/2021 of December 10 partially transposed the Omnibus Directive, particularly relating to improving the enforcement and modernization of EU legislation on consumer protection by boosting their online rights and greater information transparency
  • Law 10/2023 of March 3 has now transposed the remaining provisions of the Omnibus Directive concerning the penalties, reinforcing the fines imposed for non-compliance or violations of the rules in this area.

  • This law amends several key parts of consumer legislation in Portugal; therefore, it is of paramount importance to consider these new specifications.
