Amazon Faces Potential EU Antitrust Investigation in 2025 Over Digital Markets Act Compliance

The European Union may probe Amazon for allegedly favoring its own products on its marketplace, risking fines of up to 10% of global revenue.

The European Union is expected to decide in the coming months whether to investigate Amazon under the Digital Markets Act (DMA).
The investigation would examine allegations that Amazon gives preferential treatment to its in-house products over those of third-party sellers on its platform.
Incoming EU antitrust chief Teresa Ribera will oversee the decision, succeeding Margrethe Vestager next month.
If found in violation of the DMA, Amazon could face fines of up to 10% of its global annual revenue.
Amazon has denied wrongdoing, citing compliance efforts, and claims its algorithms do not favor its own products over third-party offerings.
