Verpackungsregister: annual Vollständigkeitserklärung (completeness declaration) deadline
Chaque année en mai, avant le 15. · Only for producers above the §11 Abs. 4 VerpackG tonnage thresholds; moves to the next business day if 15 May is a weekend/holiday.
Ce qui change
Producers whose prior-year packaging volumes reach the thresholds in §11 Abs. 4 VerpackG (glass ≥80 t; paper/cardboard/paperboard ≥50 t; or combined iron metals + aluminium + plastics + beverage cartons + other composite packaging ≥30 t) must submit an audited Vollständigkeitserklärung to the ZSVR every year by 15 May for the preceding calendar year (moved to the next business day if 15 May falls on a weekend/holiday). This is a statutory deadline with no extension available.
Qui est concerné
Manufacturers/first distributors of packaging in Germany whose volumes exceed the §11 Abs. 4 VerpackG thresholds, typically medium/large producers and high-volume online retailers rather than typical micro/small companies.
Tailles : moyenne, grande · Secteurs : Industrie manufacturière, E-commerce, Commerce de détail · S'applique si : Nous vendons en ligne
Que faire
Track your packaging volumes placed on the German market by material each calendar year. If you cross a threshold, arrange for an independent auditor registered with the ZSVR to certify your Vollständigkeitserklärung and submit it via LUCID by 15 May of the following year.
