Step 2
Separate the streams
Step 3
Request a scoped quote
Step 4
Keep the files apart
| Control | Evidence to retain |
|---|---|
| Scope | Entity, product, channel, stream and source |
| External action | Version, date, authorised filer and issued receipt |
| Maintenance | Source data, approval, invoice and next deadline |
Separate from packaging
Packaging and electrical equipment are different regimes with different registrations, different reporting and different costs.
A packaging position says nothing about an electrical equipment position, and a packaging tariff never prices one.
What we publish
This remains an information and human-quote stream here. We do not publish a fee table or a registration timeline we have not verified for the current year.
Scope is confirmed for the specific product range before anything is quoted.
Why it matters for e-commerce
A single product can carry packaging, electrical and battery duties at once, which is why the streams are separated at the start rather than discovered later.
Each stream is documented on its own file.
Conclusion
Scope comes before a form. Connect the legal entity, product, sales channel and EPR stream to the rule that actually applies.
Evidence must remain traceable. Keep source data, versions, approvals, filings, receipts and every record issued by an external body.
Third-party decisions are never guaranteed. CONAI, public registers, collective systems and marketplaces control their own procedures, timing and decisions.
