✅ What you must do in Greece (WEEE EPR)

• 🪪 Register in EMPA (National Producer Register) and obtain your producer registration number/certificate.
• ♻️ Participate in a Collective System (PRO/SSED) or set up an approved Individual System for WEEE management.
• 🧾 Submit producer reporting (at least annually to the register; schemes may require periodic declarations).
• 🏷️ Apply WEEE marking (crossed-out wheeled bin + identification mark; Annex IX).
• 🗂️ Maintain records (contracts, declarations, invoices, product lists, category mapping, weights) for audits and partner checks.

🧩 Who is obligated (“producer” scope)

You are typically obligated if you:

• 🏭 Manufacture EEE and place it on the Greek market under your name/trademark.
• 📦 Import EEE into Greece (including intra-EU movements) and place it on the market.
• 🛒 Sell EEE by distance directly to Greek households or professional users from abroad.
• 🧾 Sell through an online platform where EPR responsibility can shift unless the seller provides proof of EMPA registration (platform scenarios).

🪪 Registration in EMPA (National Producer Register)

EMPA is the online National Producer Register managed under EOAN. Producers without access codes can request credentials from the EMPA login page (“I don’t have codes”).

Registration outcome: a registration certificate and a unique producer registration number (PRN/Producer ID).

🧭 Practical registration flow (typical)

1- Visit EMPA and request access (“I don’t have codes”).

2- Activate the account and complete company details inside the register.

3- Enter EEE placed on the market (as required by the EMPA workflow).

4- Submit and print the certificate/PRN once finalised.

Distributor check: distributors are required to trade only EEE included in an approved system and sourced from registered producers.

♻️ Take-back & financing: join an approved WEEE compliance scheme (or individual system)

Greek EEE producers must set up an Individual System or participate in a Collective System for WEEE alternative management.

Examples referenced in public guidance include:

• Appliances Recycling S.A. (official take-back system for WEEE in Greece; funded by legally required contributions of registered companies).
• Fotokiklosi S.A. (listed as a compliance scheme option for specific WEEE categories in EU/IMPEL guidance).

🧾 Reporting: what to prepare (and how to keep it audit-ready)

📌 Data that usually drives WEEE declarations

• EEE categories (aligned to EU register formats).
• Placed-on-market quantities (weight and/or units, depending on category and national/system rules).
• Brands/trademarks, seller type (manufacturer/importer/distance seller), and company identifiers.

✅ Controls that prevent reporting errors

• 🔁 Reconcile ERP/invoices vs. declarations (returns, cancellations, bundles).
• 🧩 Lock category mapping per SKU and document any changes.
• 🗃️ Store evidence: contracts with the scheme, certificates, periodic declaration snapshots, and invoices/fee statements.

🏷️ Marking & customer information (WEEE label)

EEE sold in the EU must carry the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol for separate collection (Annex IX) and must be visible, legible, and indelible.

The EU also expects producer identification (brand/trademark) on the equipment.

Greek guidance explicitly links marking to Annex IX and references EN 50419 as the preferred standard approach.
