new regulation around eu import law promises art market shakeup 1234744257

A new European Union regulation, Regulation (EU) 2019/880, will take effect on June 28, requiring thorough provenance documentation for cultural objects over 200 years old (or 250 for archaeological items) imported into the EU. Importers must provide material evidence proving lawful acquisition from the country of origin, including the object's origin, export date, and chain of ownership, or face potential seizure. The rule builds on a 2019 anti-trafficking law and has sparked concern among EU-based dealers, who warn it could stifle the market for antiquities and non-European art.
