German EPR open data
Four things about the German market are hard to find in one place and easy to get wrong: what a representative actually costs, when each duty bites, who is approved to recover the packaging, and what the fines are. We publish all of it as open data, each figure carrying the official source it came from, free to reuse under CC BY 4.0.

What German EPR representatives charge
Published annual fees, setup charges and first-year totals for every provider we could find with a public price, plus a feature-by-feature comparison of what each fee actually includes.
Open dataset →Every German EPR deadline, and the penalties
The statutory dates from PPWR and VerpackDG with a live countdown — including the § 19 and § 22 Zulassung dates in 2027 and 2028 that we have not seen published anywhere else — and the maximum fine for each offence.
Open dataset →Who is approved to recover German packaging
The two statutory routes, the authority that approves each, the approved dual systems and the industrial take-back organisations — and what the per-kilogram licence fees actually pay for.
Open dataset →We sell German EPR representation, so we are not a neutral party in the price dataset. That is exactly why every competing row carries a link to the provider's own published page — check the numbers at their origin rather than taking them from us.
