What does this mean?

The section applies only when the organiser is established outside the EEA. In that case, the organiser's obligations under Chapter 5 and 8 are transferred to the retailer. The requirements the retailer takes over are the same as those that otherwise apply to organisers. The retailer is only exempt if it can document that the organiser itself meets them. If the organiser is established within the EEA, the rule does not apply. The section is in Chapter 6 on the retailer, together with § 38, which allows the traveller (reisende) to also contact the retailer about the performance of the trip.
