The following paper examines the effects of the EC Directive on the sale of consumer goods and associated guarantees on Spanish contract law. It focuses in particular on the regulation contained both in the Consumer Protection Act and the Retail Trade Act, and in the Civil Code as well. As a result, it is clear that that there are differences between the Spanish law and the EC Directive, mainly on the requirement of the conformity with the contract, as it does not exist in Spanish legislation. In order to implement the Directive, the question is to adopt a new Act or to modify the provisions of the Civil Code.
