Packaging licensing in Europe

Once you have registered, simply select a country via our interactive dashboard, answer the questions, enter your volumes and receive the result directly, including a detailed cost estimate. You can change your details or check other countries at any time. What are you waiting for?

European packaging legislation and the role of the authorized representative
The changes to the Austrian Packaging Ordinance are currently also attracting a great deal of interest among German retailers. The main reason for this is a significant innovation: since 1 January 2023, foreign retailers who ship products to Austria and do not have a branch there must appoint an official authorized representative. However, this requirement is not only valid in Austria; similar regulations also exist in other EU countries. We shed light on the countries in which the appointment of an authorized representative is required for shipping and what consequences this has for you.
VAT in e-commerce and the one-stop store concept – an overview
International deliveries play a crucial role in global economic growth, especially for the e-commerce sector. This aspect has also been recognised by the European Union, which is why it has adapted its tax regulations accordingly since July 2021. These adjustments not only entail the fulfilment of certain requirements, for example from the German Packaging Act (VerpackG) or the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), but also impose additional obligations on retailers who ship products to end consumers within the EU.
Package labeling in Italy: A comprehensive guide
Anyone shipping goods to Italy should definitely observe the labelling regulations there. In contrast to Germany, where the Packaging Act (VerpackG) governs the handling of packaging materials, other European countries such as France and Italy have their own laws. In addition to the licensing of packaging, these often also require specific labelling tailored to the country in question.
