H 186 Vermont House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An act relating to regulating warranty registration requirements

This bill prohibits sellers in Vermont from requiring consumers to register a product as a condition for receiving or maintaining a warranty. It applies to all goods sold in the state and directly affects both businesses offering warranties and individual buyers purchasing those products. Under the new rules, sellers must clearly disclose how registration information is used and confirm that failing to register does not void warranty coverage. Violations of these requirements would be classified as unfair and deceptive business practices under existing state law.
