Why the distinction matters
Using “UK” as a generic market description can conceal a material compliance gap. Distribution agreements, e-commerce shipping zones, labels, notification records and the location of the PIF must all match the actual territory.
Combined EU and GB projects
Brands entering both the European Union and Great Britain can use a coordinated evidence package, but the responsible person mandates and notification records remain legally distinct. Formula or label differences must be controlled explicitly.
