COMMISSION NOTICE Guidance on the interpretation and application of Council Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair terms in consumer contracts · European Union
Therefore, whenever a professional (i.e. a trader or ‘seller or supplier’) from a third country carries on an activity in a Member State or directs its activities to consumers who have their habitual place of residence in a Member State, those consumers will benefit from the protection under the UCTD and the consumer protection rules of their Member State. This applies even where the parties choose the law of the third country as the applicable law. However, Article 5 of the Rome I Regulation contains particular rules for contracts of carriage.
