Paperwork and rules for East Midlands businesses online
Putting your business online brings no special licence, but a few rules are worth checking:
- When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling
- Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine. GOV.UK: unfair commercial practices
Details vary by business, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.
