Packaging
Every product you ship to the EU comes in packaging, and packaging has its own EPR, separate from the product. From 12 August 2026, a producer selling directly to end users in a country where it is not established must appoint an authorised representative for EPR there; member states may require one from producers outside the EU too. We register you, report the weights of your packaging, pay the fees and sign the contract with a packaging scheme in each country.
Not every product needs a representative: it depends on the product and on who else takes the role in the EU, for example an importer. We check it before you sign.
The company check is free.

Key dates
- PPWR applies: a producer selling directly to end users in a country where it is not established needs an authorised representative for EPR there; member states may require one from producers outside the EU too.
Legal basis
Regulation (EU) 2025/40 (PPWR), Article 45: authorised representative for extended producer responsibility in the countries where you need one.
Questions
We sell batteries. Do we also need this?
Usually yes. Batteries reach the customer in packaging, and packaging has its own EPR. We cover both under one contract.
What do you need from us?
The packaging materials and weights per product, and the quantities you ship to each country. We give you a template in your language.
