Implementing Regulation laying down templates concerning the transparency reporting obligations of providers of online platforms

The Regulation establishes uniform reporting templates and periods. Providers will have to start collecting data according to the Implementing Regulation as of 1 July 2025, with the first harmonised reports due in the beginning of 2026. The reporting periods for providers of VLOPs and VLOSEs will now be aligned, depending on their dates of designation.

To ensure consistency between the transparency tools of the DSA, the requirements for submitting statements of reasons to the DSA Transparency Database will be updated to be aligned with the data categories in the Implementing Regulation. Providers will have to submit statements of reasons according to the new requirements starting from 1 July 2025, same as for the transparency reporting templates.

Please find below the templates for the reports, available in XLSX format in multiple languages, as well as the instructions to fill the templates and the implementing act as PDFs. For convenience, the English template is also provided in CSV format, split into 10 separate files (CSV Parts 1-10) to accommodate the different sheets of the original XLSX document.
