Political content update in Shopping ads

Share on LinkedIn

From March 2026, Google is tightening rules on political content in Shopping ads.

In some countries (e.g., US, UK, Australia, Mexico), advertisers can run political-related Shopping ads only after completing election ads verification, and ads will show disclosures.

In others (including Canada, Japan, India, South Korea, Brazil, and all EU countries), political Shopping ads will be completely banned.
Advertisers should review campaigns, verify accounts if needed, and update ads before March 2026 to avoid disruptions
