Antigua St John's - CARICOM residents now have an online system they can use to report dangerous products in the region.

The CARICOM Rapid Exchange System for Dangerous non-food Consumer Goods (CARREX) will cover the 14 Member States and allow consumers to report on non-food items.

Each territory, including Antigua & Barbuda, has a national contact point.

CARREX operates through an online portal (webpage) that allows consumers in any of the participating countries to alert their national contact point about a product, which they have detected, has caused harm or poses a safety hazard.

CARREX was officially launched earlier this year following a decision by the Council for Trade and Economic Development (COTED) in November 2011.
