Yes, John, it looks like a new type of economic actor is defined to account for Amazon type companies, but it also constrains everyone else.
One of the interesting points is a requirement to indicated the REA (responsible economic actor) on the product (or in documents etc...). The REA has to be an EU person (real or legal). I'm still digesting it, but given a 2 year transition time frame, confusions of what to do with it in the EU are going to nicely get tangled with Brexit impacts. I see a lot of interesting tangles and confusions down the line.

It looks like a move to regulate Amazon and similar sources. At present, in the UK at least, there is little surveillance of goods ordered in small quantities by members of the public, with the exception of medication and some medical products.

Seems like it might impose some significant changes in EU compliance management. Haven't found an OJ printed version yet. Attached are news release and the text linked in the release.
