Your responsibilities

According to the Austrian Waste Management Act (Abfallwirtschaftsgesetz – AWG), primary obligated parties for packacking are obliged to join a compliance scheme for household packaging regarding the quantities of household packaging they have put on the market.

Primary obligated parties are:

  • manufacturers and importers of service packaging with their registered office or a branch in Austria
  • packers with their registered office or a branch in Austria regarding the packaging which is not service packaging used by them for the first time,
  • importers with their registered office or a branch in Austria regarding the packaging of the products or goods imported by them,
  • importers for own use with their registered office or a branch in Austria regarding the packaging of the products or goods that are purchased from abroad for the operation of their own business that becomes waste within the company, and
  • mail-order companies without registered office or branch in Austria that deliver packagings or products or goods in packaging to a private final customer in Austria in the course of distance selling.

Packaging compliance is a complex topic and requires a lot of expertise.

To the reporting tool

Does your company sell packaged goods to Germany?

The German Packaging Act, which entered into force in January 2019, obliges all manufacturers and retailers placing packaging on the German market to apply for a licence through a packaging scheme.

The Act, which applies to mail order companies, eBay sellers and operators of small online shops, encompasses all packaging materials and has no minimum threshold – as soon as you place packaging on the German market, then you must join a scheme.
