Are you a manufacturer looking for a professional partner to review your annual volume report in accordance with the Single-Use Plastic Fund Act?
Are you a tax consultant or auditor who needs to prepare audits and certifications for your clients that require knowledge of the Single-Use Plastic Fund Act?
We review manufacturers' annual reports filed under the Single-Use-Plastic Fund Act and assist with their filing on DIVID.
Implementing the requirements of the Single-Use Plastic Fund Act (EWKFondsG) presents many companies with practical and technical challenges. The law requires manufacturers of certain single-use plastic products to register, report quantities, and pay fund contributions in order to allocate the costs of cleaning and disposal according to the polluter-pays principle. Products such as food packaging for immediate consumption, beverage cups, wet wipes, and cigarette filters are particularly affected. Defining the types of products covered, determining the quantities subject to reporting, and meeting the registration and reporting requirements via the DIVID portal of the Federal Environment Agency are complex and require a meticulous data foundation. At the same time, the reported quantities serve as the basis for calculating the fund levies.
We support you with a clearly structured approach and extensive experience in implementing legal requirements. Our focus is on ensuring that the entire process is carried out in a clear, efficient, and reliable manner – from assessing the scope of impact and reporting volumes to meeting the obligations under the EWKFondsG in a timely manner.
