EU-Mercosur Market : Launch of the Action Group for Monitoring Acquisitions and Imports as of May 1 , 2026
InfoCons announces the launch of the Interdisciplinary Action Group dedicated to monitoring and implementing the EU-Mercosur Agreement. The initiative marks the provisional entry into force of the trade agreement, scheduled for May 1, 2026, and is addressed equally to consumers, public institutions, and the private sector involved in procurement, sale, and resale processes.
The action group will oversee procurement and import flows between the two markets through the InfoCons SOLUTION, an essential digital tool for consumer protection and market security.
Through the InfoCons SOLUTION, a rigorous mechanism for monitoring the agreement between the two community blocs will be ensured. The main objective is to block the trading of products subject to official notifications, removing from the market products identified as non-compliant or that pose a major risk to consumer safety in all signatory states of the EU-Mercosur Agreement.

The InfoCons SOLUTION is accessible in 33 languages, offering full support in Spanish and Portuguese – the official languages of Mercosur member states (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay). Thus, users can access vital information in a modern digital format, facilitating transparent and safe trade between the two economic blocs.
The InfoCons Solution provides users (both consumers and public institutions, as well as the commercial sector) with the ALERTS section regarding dangerous and non-compliant products with risk, identified by public authorities, thus contributing to the prevention of incidents and increasing awareness among consumers and economic operators in the countries of the Mercosur trade bloc, EU member states, as well as Turkey.
Products identified in ALERT systems are prohibited from commercialization due to their level of danger and risk.
The InfoCons SOLUTION supports procurement from public funds and commercial relations, ensuring that products subject to procurement are not part of the category of dangerous and non-compliant products.
