Opgaaf 2026 controleren en aanpassen
Per 12 augustus 2026 treedt de PPWR in werking. Hierdoor verschuiven wettelijke verplichtingen voor het doen van aangifte, wat gevolgen kan hebben voor uw opgaaf 2026. Lees ook ons beleid 2026.
Het is belangrijk om te controleren of de opgaaf representatief is voor uw situatie in 2026. Indien nodig kunt u uw opgaaf zelf aanpassen in PackTool.
De PPWR is Europese wetgeving voor verpakkingen en brengt veranderingen met zich mee voor iedereen die verpakkingen of verpakte producten op de markt brengt.

Why is it necessary to file a declaration?
We administer producer responsibility, on behalf of companies, as efficiently and effectively as possible. Producers and importers pay the Packaging Waste Management Fee to Verpact. We use this money to pay collection and recycling costs. This enables us to achieve the statutory recycling targets for the business sector. Together we’re working towards a world where packaging is not waste but a raw material. How do we do this? Check it out here. File declaration directly? Click here.
