Extended producer responsibility

EPR, without the portals

If you place goods on the French market, you fund their end of life. That means joining a scheme for every category you sell, obtaining a unique identifier that looks like FR 123456 _01AB, entering it in Seller Central, and declaring your tonnage every year.

We handle the registrations, keep the declaration calendar, and answer the schemes' letters in your place.

There is no single EPR number for Europe. Each member state runs its own rules, so selling in France, Germany, Spain and Italy can mean four separate registrations per category, each with its own reporting schedule.

Without a valid identifier, Amazon may collect the eco-fee itself — at a rate you don't control, on sales you have already made. Registering directly is usually cheaper.
