From today, markets with more than 10 employees must publish product prices on their website.

Starting today, retailers must publish daily product sales prices on their official websites. The obligation stems from amendments to the Consumer Protection Law that were published in the Official Gazette on March 4 and the Ministry of Economy has drafted a Regulation on the manner of publishing prices of goods.

The regulation states that all small, medium and large retailers engaged in retail trade in accordance with the National Classification of Activities are required to publish the prices of the goods they place on the market on their website every day in a clear and accessible manner, through a special section of the retailer's website dedicated to prices (Prices). The published prices must be available without the need for additional registration or login.

Price updates must be made daily by 10:00 AM, and in the event of an unintentional technical error, the merchant is obligated to correct the error within 24 hours.

If the merchant offers promotional or discounted prices, the website must show the regular price, the percentage or amount of the discount, and the duration of the promotion or discount.

In a survey conducted by AIM, the majority of citizens stated that they will not go to the market while the boycott is ongoing. They agree that product prices are too high for low incomes.

According to the authorities, this method of publishing sales prices will ensure transparency, greater competition, and price reductions.

Amendments to the Consumer Protection Law were approved at the parliamentary session held on February 25. A similar law has also been adopted in Croatia. /Telegrafi/
