Help with whatever a marketplace asks about your German packaging compliance. That means which number goes in which field on Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Kaufland or OTTO, what to send when a platform asks for proof, and what to do when listings are blocked for a missing or mismatched registration. It is included in Essential (€149 a year) and Standard. The platforms ask you, the producer, so you submit in your seller account; we tell you exactly what to submit.

What it covers
- Where to enter your LUCID number on each marketplace. See German packaging rules by marketplace.
- Replying to a platform's request for proof of registration or of the representative appointment.
- Blocked or deactivated listings: finding which check failed, for example a company name that does not match your LUCID entry. See listings blocked although you are registered.
What it does not cover
Other countries' registrations, and other regimes such as electricals or batteries, which are quoted separately.
