The goal of the study was to analyse European Rapid Alert system for dangerous products (RAPEX) notifications, taking into account: year, product category, risk type, submitting country and origin country. The study covered the years 2005–2021 (the entire period of the RAPEX operation) and used two-way joining cluster analysis. The most significant risks were: chemical risks and choking in toys from China, injuries in motor vehicles from European Union (EU) countries, i.e. Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, as well as the United States and Japan and choking, injuries and strangulation in clothing items from Turkey. The quick flow of information, cooperation between EU countries within the RAPEX and open access to data make an important contribution to improving consumer safety on the European market, and localising production in Europe (following the COVID-19 outbreak and the war in Ukraine) could further improve this safety.
