Review PPWR
For electronics and battery sellers

One entry, three streams,
each with its own evidence.

A device can create packaging, electrical-equipment and battery duties at once. In Poland they live in the same register entry under one nine-digit number, which makes the file simpler and the obligations no lighter. Packaging is our productised service; the other two are information and a manual quote.

Timing depends on document completeness and independent registry and scheme review

Electronic devices, embedded batteries and packaging separated into Polish EPR streams
Battery transition

Confirm the live route before filing

The EU regulation applies alongside a Polish act that has not yet been replaced. We describe this as transitional and check the current requirement rather than announcing a new register that is not there.

A multi-stream catalogue needs separate controls

The embedded battery disappears

A battery supplied inside equipment still needs its own technical data and its own route, and the EU battery regulation has required distance sellers to appoint an authorised representative in each Member State since 18 August 2025.

One number is read as one obligation

Adding electrical equipment or batteries updates the existing register entry rather than issuing a second number. The duties, the reporting and the financial security behind each section stay separate.

A packaging fee is assumed to cover everything

Equipment for households carries its own financial-security requirement, and collection routes are contracted separately. None of that is inside a packaging price.

  • Catalogue map for equipment, batteries and packaging
  • Working equipment-category and battery-data checklist

How it works

Four controlled steps.

01

Map the facts

Record the entity, countries, channels, contracts and products relevant to electronics and battery sales.

02

Separate the streams

Packaging, electrical equipment and batteries are assessed independently, with assumptions marked for confirmation.

03

Confirm the written scope

Private fees, exclusions, external costs and client approvals are set out before any work begins.

04

Maintain authentic evidence

Official documents, filings, invoices and changes remain linked to the entity and stream that produced them.

Frequently asked

Does a packaging entry cover electrical equipment and batteries?

No. They are separate sections of the same register entry, with their own duties, their own reporting and their own evidence. The nine-digit number is shared; the obligations are not.

Which battery rules apply now?

The EU battery regulation has required distance sellers to appoint an authorised representative for extended producer responsibility in each Member State since 18 August 2025, while Poland still applies its 2009 battery act domestically. That is a transition, not a completed new register, and the live route has to be confirmed before filing.

Is there an authorised representative for electrical equipment?

Yes, and that is the one place the Polish institution genuinely exists: the 2015 act on waste electrical and electronic equipment provides for it. It does not extend to packaging, whatever a vendor may offer.

Do you publish a fixed price for these streams?

No. Classification, the entity, representation and the collection route have to be reviewed first, so both streams are quoted individually.
