Now it’s time for Temu to take its obligations under the DSA seriously and conduct thorough, evidence-based risk assessments to protect users and the public from harm.
 The Commission continues to engage with Temu to ensure compliance with the decision and with the DSA.

Illegal products have no place in the European market. Protecting European consumers from harm is a top priority for the European Commission. That's why, today, we are taking decisive action against Temu and issuing a fine of € 200 million under the Digital Services Act.
