One partner for your European EPR compliance

If your products contain packaging, use batteries, include electronic components or incorporate textiles, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) obligations apply every time you sell into an EU Member State or the UK. The challenge is not understanding EPR. It is managing registration across multiple national schemes, each with its own portal, language, deadline and fee structure, at the same time.
24hour-AR handles EPR registration across EU and UK markets through our own local entities, enhanced with a partner network of local Producer Responsibility Organisations (PROs). One point of contact manages the process for your entire product range.

Who this is for

EPR is a national obligation, not an EU one. Registering in the Netherlands does nothing for Germany. Each country has its own register, its own scheme (or several), its own reporting cycle and its own definition of who counts as the producer. Since the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) became applicable on 12 August 2026, most countries also expect producers without a local establishment to appoint an Authorised Representative for EPR in that country.
The result for a company selling into five countries: five registers, five or more schemes, up to fifteen reporting deadlines and a different representative in each market. That is what we take off your plate.

Plenty of service providers will file your declarations. Only an authorised representative can do the following four things:

Everything else is compliance management: collecting packaging data, classifying products, preparing declarations, entering data in portals, monitoring deadlines and answering marketplace requests for your EPR number. We do that too, and for the Netherlands it is included in the annual fee.
And because 24hour-AR already acts as EU Authorised Representative, UK Responsible Person and EPREL registrant for many of our clients, EPR fits into a compliance setup you may already have with us, with one contact and one mandate structure.
Two things nobody can take over from you: supplying complete and accurate data, and the product side obligations under the PPWR (design, labelling, conformity). For those, see our PPWR Guide.

Prices below apply to the Netherlands and include your standard declarations. All prices exclude VAT.

• Formal representation for packaging: the written mandate, your entry in the producer register, acting as your contact point for Verpact and the competent authority, and the compliance exposure that comes with the role.
• Registration with Verpact and Stichting OPEN and keeping your registration details current.
• Your standard declarations: one annual declaration per stream, or the scheme’s standard cycle up to four reports per year, for up to 25 material lines or product categories, including one round of corrections.
• Deadline monitoring and regulatory updates that affect you.

• Verpact’s packaging waste management fee and Stichting OPEN’s contributions: these are calculated on the quantities you place on the market and invoiced by the scheme to you as the registered producer.
• Additional charges: more than 25 material lines or product categories (€10 per line per year), data delivered after the agreed cut off date (€150 per declaration), and marketplace verification requests beyond the first two per year (€75 each).

The prices above apply to the Netherlands. For other EU countries and the UK, tell us which countries you sell into, and we will send you a quote per country. You only pay for representation where it is actually required, and we confirm the exact obligations per country during onboarding.
