Review PPWR
Indicative 2026 pricing

Compare our service fees. Keep the statutory and external costs separate.

These are non-binding service references for scoping. A human review confirms the entity, channels, packaging, history and mandate before a written proposal. This website does not create a contract or take payment.

Review Standard scope

Active add-on

Document and marketplace audit

Manual quote

Invoice and receipt templates, marketplace panels and the available evidence determine the one-off scope. No audit fee is added automatically.

Manual quote only

WEEE review

Electrical-equipment classification, entity and register route are reviewed before any fee is proposed. No rate from another country or from the packaging stream is used as a proxy.

Manual quote only

Battery review

Battery scope and the current Polish transition are reviewed individually. It is not presented as a packaged fixed-price service.

Paid outside our service fee

The statutory charges remain the client’s external cost.

The registry fee is 200 zł for a micro-enterprise and 800 zł otherwise, paid once with the application and then annually by the end of February. Recovery-organisation charges and the statutory product fee remain payable by the registered party. All of these are separate from our fees and VAT.

Collection threshold

A total product fee of 100 zł or less across all packaging is not collected. That is a collection floor on the fee alone; it decides nothing about registration, the registry number, the annual fee or the report.

Statutory 2026 product fee · złoty per kilogram

Material Rate 2026 recycling level
Paper / cardboard 0.70 zł/kg 77%
Plastic 2.70 zł/kg 51%
Glass 0.30 zł/kg 71%
Steel and other ferrous metals 0.80 zł/kg 72%
Aluminium 1.40 zł/kg 53%
Wood 0.30 zł/kg 26%
Multi-material packaging 1.70 zł/kg 66%

The product fee is charged only on the shortfall against each level, and only if you do not meet it another way. Contracting a recovery organisation normally costs a fraction of this, but no Polish organisation publishes a tariff, so that route is quoted individually. Below one tonne of total packaging a year, the levels and the fee fall away as de minimis aid.

Register fees you pay directly

Small amounts, hard deadlines.

These are statutory amounts paid to the marshal, not to us. They are quoted in złoty because that is the currency they are owed in; euro figures are approximate and use a fixed reference rate.

Registration and annual fee

Micro-enterprise

200 zł

Every other business

800 zł

The micro-enterprise rate is a statutory definition, not a self-assessment. The registration fee is paid once with the application; the same amount then falls due every year by the end of February, except in the year you registered.

The compliance year

28 February

Annual registry fee

Deletion from the register if unpaid after the marshal's call for payment

15 March

Annual report on products, packaging and waste management

Administrative penalty

15 March

Product fee for the previous year, where recycling levels were not met

Arrears decision plus an additional fee of 50% of the unpaid amount

15 March

De minimis application, where total packaging stayed at or below one tonne

The exemption is lost for that year

31 December

Public-education contribution of at least 2% of the net value of packaging placed on the market

Administrative penalty

What the de minimis threshold does and does not do

One tonne is a threshold, not an allowance.

Below one tonne of total packaging in a calendar year, the recycling levels, the product fee and the education contribution fall away as de minimis aid, on application. Everything that makes you findable in the register does not.

Registration

Required from the first parcel. There is no volume threshold for being in the register.

Your registry number on documents

A statutory duty on invoices and other business documents, whatever your volume.

Annual fee by the end of February

Unpaid, it leads to deletion from the register — which silently invalidates the number you gave the marketplaces.

Annual report by 15 March

Still due, including in a de minimis year.

De minimis application by 15 March

The exemption is claimed, not automatic. Miss the application and the full fee is owed.

Crossing the threshold

One extra kilogram makes the whole year chargeable, not just the excess.

Always shown separately

A proposal must identify who charges each line.

Private service fees

Starter, Standard, setup and any agreed labelling-audit scope are eprpoland.com service lines.

Statutory amounts

The registration and annual fees, the product fee and the public-education contribution are owed by the registered party and paid to the marshal directly.

VAT

VAT treatment is confirmed on the written proposal and invoice; displayed references are VAT-exclusive.

Exceptional work

Historical regularisation, translations, extra variants and work outside scope require separate approval.

Pricing questions

What is included in the service price?

Only the private work and limits set out in the written proposal. Statutory charges, recovery-organisation fees, VAT and external costs stay separate.

Does Standard guarantee a register entry or a marketplace result?

No. The marshal decides the entry and each marketplace makes its own decisions. We can prepare and coordinate evidence for the agreed scope.

Does Amazon Starter include previous years?

No. Prior periods or historical regularisation make the restricted Starter route ineligible and require a separate review.

Can I take the recovery-organisation route just because it is cheaper?

Usually it is cheaper than the statutory product fee, but no Polish organisation publishes a tariff, the contract is yours to sign and the choice commits the calendar year. We document the comparison; we do not switch route automatically.

Is the PPWR authorised representative a tax representative or PRO?

No. Those roles must remain distinct. Any mandate and powers are defined only in a separate written engagement.
