Welcome

South Tyneside Trading Standards Service

The service is part of the Council's Neighbourhood Services Directorate and is committed to protect the interests of South Tyneside consumers and businesses and visitors to the Borough.

Whilst our role includes the enforcement of a wide range consumer protection legislation we also aim to provide a flexible service putting the needs of our customers first.

Our web site is designed to give South Tyneside residents, traders and visitors better access to our services but you are free to browse the site wherever you live.

Find your local service at Trading Standards Central

You can also get help and advice from Consumer Direct or call them on 0845 404 05 06

To access information on all Government Services, contact Directgov.uk

We hope that you find these resources useful and would welcome any comments you might have to improve it.

Our external publications are available in translated versions for the principal black and minority ethnic languages of South Tyneside communities (bottom of page) and are available in large print, Braille and on audiotape for people with sensory disabilities.
