"Check official source" means we could not confirm an adopted national act at the last review. The link goes to that country's official law portal, and the EU's own rules still apply there.
Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein follow EU consumer law through the EEA Agreement. At the last review EmpCo had not yet been added to it, so there was no national deadline yet.
