How WEEE & EPR Registration Works

Sellers want two things from EU compliance: get registered quickly, and never think about it again. Eldris delivers both. The process from first contact to active compliance takes days, not weeks — and once registered, ongoing reporting is handled automatically.

The 4-Step Process

01
Select Your Countries and Categories

Choose from the six EU Amazon marketplaces Eldris covers: Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, and Poland. Select which EPR streams apply to your products: WEEE for electrical equipment, Battery EPR for battery-powered products, and Packaging EPR for shipping materials.

02
Complete Your Business Details

One form covers all countries and all categories. Eldris maps your information to the requirements of each national authority automatically. The form takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. No uploading of separate documents — just the information the authorities require.

03
Eldris Submits Your Registrations

We submit your applications directly to each national authority and compliance scheme. All correspondence is handled by Eldris, including translations, follow-up queries, and authorised representative appointments if your business is not EU-established.

04
Receive Numbers & Certificates

Your official producer registration numbers and compliance certificates are delivered to your Eldris dashboard. Each certificate is formatted for direct upload to Amazon Seller Central to unblock your listings.

Ongoing Compliance & Maintenance

After Registration

EPR registration is not a one-off obligation. Each country requires periodic reporting of the volumes of electrical equipment, batteries, and packaging you have placed on their market. Reporting cycles vary — Germany requires annual reporting, France requires annual declarations to eco-organisms, etc.

Volume Reporting

Each reporting cycle, you provide the weight and unit count of products placed on each market during the period. Most Amazon sellers extract this data from their Seller Central reports. Eldris provides a simple template for submitting this data, and we do the actual authority filings.

Missed Deadlines

Each member state imposes penalties for late reports. Failure to submit German WEEE reports to Stiftung EAR can result in registration suspension — which invalidates your Amazon listings. Eldris eliminates this risk with automated deadline tracking and managed submissions.
