The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission has launched a survey to gather feedback on the relevance and adequacy of the current EU Ecolabel criteria for the ‘Tourist Accommodation’ product group, as defined in Commission Decision (EU) 2017/175.

The survey includes questions on respondent information, general topics, scope and definitions, assessment and verification procedures, the structure of the EU Ecolabel for Tourist Accommodation, as well as both mandatory and optional criteria clusters.

All interested stakeholders are encouraged to submit their responses via the Commission’s portal by 11 July 2025.
