ickeåterkommande

Ickeåterkommande is a Swedish term that translates to "non-returnable" in English. In the context of consumer law, it refers to products that are specifically designed not to be returned or exchanged after purchase.

Under Swedish consumer law, retailers are required to designate certain products as "ickeåterkommande" when selling them to consumers. This typically applies to products that are highly perishable, have a short shelf life, or have been personalized or customized for the buyer.

When a product is labeled as "ickeåterkommande," the retailer is not obligated to accept returns, exchanges, or refunds. This means that consumers who purchase these products are generally unable to return them to the store if they later change their minds or if the product does not meet their expectations.

In practice, this provision is often used for products such as perfumes, cosmetics, and other items that have a relatively short shelf life or are not easily resold. Retailers may also use this designation to avoid potential losses associated with handling and processing returns.

It's worth noting that individual retailers may have their own return policies in addition to or separate from any applicable laws or regulations. As such, some retailers might still accept returns for certain products labeled as "ickeåterkommande" on a case-by-case basis. Consumers who purchase products labeled as "ickeåterkommande" are advised to carefully review the retailer's return policy and understand their rights and limitations before making a purchase.
