Hi Scott, I echo Brian's recommendation to read the relevant sections of the Blue Guide (2016 version is the latest I believe). You can download it here <https://ec.europa.eu/growth/content/%E2%80%98blue-guide%E2%80%99-implementation-eu-product-rules-0_en>. See section 4.2 on Traceability. It has a detailed description of obligations of different economic operators with regard to identification for market surveillance authorities. This section references 768/2008/EC <https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32008D0768>, which outlines obligations (see Articles R2, R3 and R4 in Annex I).
