I ship takeaway packaging or wet wipes to German consumers from abroad. What do I have to do under the EWKFondsG?

Register, appoint, report, pay. § 3 No. 3(b) EWKFondsG makes you a producer when you sell Annex 1 products by distance selling directly to private households or other users in Germany from abroad. Then: register with the Umweltbundesamt before you start (§ 7(1)); appoint a single representative, in writing and in German (§ 10(1)), who handles the other duties but not your registration or annual report; report each year by 15 May the previous year's quantities by type and kilograms, checked by a registered expert or auditor unless you placed under 100 kg (§ 11(1), (4)); and pay the levy set by notice (§ 13). Unregistered producers' products may not be sold, listed on marketplaces or fulfilled (§ 9). We do not act as representative under the EWKFondsG. EWKFondsG § 3+4
