Description

Ministry of Justice and Public Security adopted ordinance establishing transparency rules for price composition and allocation on digital transport and delivery platforms

On 24 March 2026, the Ministry of Justice and Public Security adopted an ordinance establishing transparency rules for price composition and allocation on digital transport and delivery platforms. The ordinance introduces requirements intended to increase the availability of information in algorithm-mediated consumer transactions as the use of mobility and delivery applications expands. It also provides for the disclosure of service providers’ remuneration. The ordinance requires digital transport and delivery platforms to display a summary table indicating how the total price paid by the recipient is allocated, including amounts attributed to the platform operator (as a gross amount), the service provider (including tips), and the sender, where applicable. It further states that non-compliance constitutes a breach of consumer protection law and may result in administrative, civil, or criminal sanctions. The obligations apply from 24 April 2026.
