Also Americans try to comply with the _letter_ of European laws which leads to some absurdities like the recent HN threads of people claiming it's impossible to sell goods to Europe because you have to register your packaging in every European country.
- herbst 2mo agoTo be fair, that's actually basically true. Saying this as a swiss who stopped selling to Europe. You need to register in several countries for packaging, there is no central thing and it's kinda obscure (in Germany there are several different companies you can do that with, from my understanding). There is a new law since August who tries to centralise and make it easier for sellers. But right now it isn't, there are several country specific small hoops and Ive experienced returned items with complain letters and threaten fees as well.
