Companies that sell packaging, electrical equipment and batteries in countries where they do not have their own headquarters face numerous challenges due to the requirements of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) in Europe . In Austria and many EU countries, it is legally required to appoint an authorised representative who will assume your legal obligations.
Why appoint a representative?
If your company is not established in the respective country, the local authorized representative ensures that:
- You fully comply with all national requirements of the Packaging Ordinance = legal certainty
- Licensing and quantity reporting are handled correctly and direct communication with the authorities takes place = time saving
- You are informed about changes in a timely manner and always keep an overview of your legal obligations = transparency
