At Greenifi we help online merchants reach European customers and comply with EU regulation around Extended Producer Responsibility & Plastic Tax.

Subscribe

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is an environmental policy that makes the party who first places a product subject to EPR requirements in the country (also known as “Producer” for EPR) responsible for the entire life cycle of the products that they introduce on the market, from their design until the end of life (including waste collection and take-back).

Plastic Tax is levy that is applied to non-reusable packaging that contains plastic.

From a rather practical point of view…

Once you place a product in the countries adopting this regulation (for example France , Germany or Spain) you need to sign up, report and pay an “environment tax” to the selected institutions. Otherwise your products may be delisted from the marketplace.

How do I know if it impacts me?

There are a lot of new definitions, terms and process to abide by, so we have set up a learning page to clarify some of it and make it easier for all our customers to battle this new administrative requirement.
