Hi Thomas, Is there a conflict in timing? I thought the EU requirements, although drafted, are still in the "proposal" stages whereas Germany seems to be implementing.

In the german version of the law is the same paragraph: Sorry, German only: "Die Angaben nach Satz 1 Nummer 2 und 3 sind auf dem Verbraucherprodukt oder, wenn dies nicht möglich ist, auf dessen Verpackung anzubringen." Sentence 2 in the law is the relevant one where the required information are described. So it is allowed to print the information on the package.
