Find environmental claims across your Amazon EU listings

Start with which Amazon file to upload. The checker reads your uploaded snapshot, not live detail pages, images or A+ content.

The wording rules cover these five languages. Unsupported declared languages are reported as not checked. Dutch, Polish and Swedish are outside the current scope; this is pattern matching, not a complete language or national-law review.

Ordinary words need context

Selected ambiguous words, such as English “responsible” or French “durable”, need an environmental context marker before their rule reports a finding. A colour or durability description should not be treated as an environmental promise just because it shares a word.

Example: French “sac durable” describes a hard-wearing bag. The marker-required rule leaves that wording alone without environmental context. You still review the full passage when a finding appears.

Organic-farming wording is handled separately

German “ökologisch” and Spanish “ecológico” can occur in organic-farming text. Recognised organic-farming phrases exclude contained generic ecological matches; recognised organic certification signals suppress the corresponding rule in that text. Other findings remain eligible for review. This does not verify an organic claim.

Bulk removal is limited to eligible generic wording. It does not invent a replacement environmental claim. Empty or ambiguous results are left for you to edit.

Deleting a few words can leave an incomplete sentence. The preview warns about likely sentence fragments and offers a whole-sentence removal option where a usable alternative exists. If neither option produces a usable result, edit the text yourself. The warning is a safeguard, not a complete grammar check.

Example: removing “Eco-friendly” from “Eco-friendly reusable water bottle” leaves “Reusable water bottle”. Read the entire resulting field before approving it; removing the same words from another sentence may need a different decision.

Approval and export are separate steps

Listing-text export has a separate gate, disabled by default. A focused update also needs a supported writable template context. Real Category Listings Report upload support and Seller Central acceptance are still awaiting validation; this page does not promise either. If an update is available, you review and submit it in Seller Central and check the result there.

Directive (EU) 2024/825, recitals 9–12 and the additions to Annex I, points 4a–4c: generic environmental claims, claims about a whole product based on one aspect, and offsetting-based greenhouse-gas claims. The official English, German, French, Italian and Spanish versions were reviewed on 29 September 2026.

The Directive gives examples, not an exhaustive vocabulary. A wording match is a reason for seller review, not a verdict about a listing. National French and German rules are outside this scan.

For the wider context, read the environmental claims guide. If you already have a notice, start with the Account Health workflow.

• Your files stay in your workspace. They are stored privately and are not shared with other customers. Administrative access is restricted, but it exists — support cannot honestly promise nobody can ever look at a file, so it does not. How the data is protected.
• Nothing becomes public because you uploaded it. A product safety page is published only when you choose to publish one, through a link that can be revoked afterwards. Public pages and revocable links.
• You can ask for your data to be deleted. Write to the address above. Your rights and what is kept and for how long.
• Never send credentials. ComplyShelf holds no Seller Central login and never needs one. If anything asks you for one, it is not us.
