Price Indication Ordinance<\/h2>\n\n

The Price Indication Ordinance (PAngV)<\/a> is a central set of rules in German consumer law. It ensures that consumers receive transparent and comparable price information when making a purchase decision. <\/p>\n\n

Purpose of the Price Indication Ordinance<\/h2>\n\n

The aim of the PAngV is to protect consumers from misleading price information and to increase market transparency. It obliges companies to display prices clearly, comprehensibly and in full. This should make it easier for consumers to compare products and services and make an informed purchase decision. At the same time, the regulation ensures fair competition, as all providers are subject to the same regulations. <\/p>\n\n

In order for someone to be classified as a competitor under competition law, a concrete competitive relationship between the parties involved is required.<\/p>\n\n
