The European Union has passed a landmark Right to Repair Directive that binds all 27 member states to make electronics repairable and to slash an estimated 35 million tons of appliance waste. Under the new rules, manufacturers can no longer refuse repairs simply because parts are expensive or a customer tried a do-it-yourself fix.
Warranty Protection and Mandatory Repairs
Consumers who choose repair while a product is still under its legal guarantee will see that protection extended by at least 12 months. Once the warranty expires, manufacturers are still required to repair specific goods on request, including washing machines, dishwashers, fridges, TVs, phones, tablets, vacuum cleaners, tumble dryers, servers, welding equipment, and e-bike and e-scooter batteries.
The directive aims to make repair easier than replacement, directly targeting the millions of tonnes of electronic waste Europeans discard every year. Brussels is also introducing a standard repair information form and, from 2027, a free online repair platform to help shoppers compare options.
Limits on Refusals and Consumer Recourse
Companies can no longer refuse repairs simply because parts are costly, an independent shop has opened the device, or the owner attempted a DIY fix. They can only refuse if repair is truly impossible, and manufacturers remain free to charge reasonable prices for parts and labour.
Unhappy customers can complain to national authorities, which must enforce penalties that are effective, proportionate and dissuasive. The directive does not cover laptops, consoles or furniture yet, but the list of covered products is expected to grow.
A Broader Environmental Push
The Right to Repair Directive is part of a wider EU strategy to reduce the environmental footprint of consumer electronics. By forcing manufacturers to prioritise repair over replacement, the legislation targets the 35 million tons of waste generated annually from broken appliances across the bloc.
The rules apply uniformly across all 27 member states, ensuring that consumers in every country benefit from the same protections. Brussels expects the scope to expand further, bringing more product categories under the repair mandate in coming years.
