eBay tips for toys
Add product safety information
For buyers in the EU and Northern Ireland, eBay asks for manufacturer, responsible-person and safety details. Use the product’s own documents and keep them current.
Check recalls before listing
eBay removes recalled and unsafe children’s products. Check recall notices for what you list, and avoid magnets or button batteries without complete documents.
Keep quantities honest at peak
Toys can sell out fast before Christmas. Keep quantities in step with real availability, because cancelled orders hurt buyers and your seller standing.

Can I sell toys to buyers abroad on eBay?
Only where the toy meets that country’s safety rules and the delivery route supports it. A toy compliant in one market may need different marking or documents elsewhere, so list per destination rather than shipping everywhere by default.
