Keep your home market and hand over the country you do not serve. German law requires the representative to be established in Germany; we already are. You keep your service and your client, and we take only the German appointment, the licence and the reports. Sources (2)

Why providers work with us
- No entity to open. The representative must have its seat or a branch in Germany (§ 5(2) VerpackDG); EPRGermanyRep GbR is established in Köln.
- You keep your service. We only take the country you hand over.
- Your data, re-used. Clients can upload the packaging figures they already have as a CSV.
- Germany has three registers, not one. Packaging in LUCID, electricals and batteries at stiftung ear. See all German services.
What you can offer
Copy these into your service list or proposals. We deliver them.
- Representation in Germany, France or Spain, for the countries you don't cover
- Reports in each country from the client's figures
- A clear split: you run your market, we run ours
Published prices, no setup fee: Germany €149 a year for packaging, €500 a year each for electricals and batteries; France from €190 a year per stream; Spain €199 a year. Licence and scheme fees are passed on at cost. See pricing.
How to add it
When a client adds Germany and you don't serve it, introduce them for Germany only. They sign a mandate with us for Germany, and nothing else changes.
Partner terms
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| Your fee | 20% of what your client contracts with us, and 20% again of every yearly renewal, for as long as the client stays. No cap. |
| Data service | 20% of every month a client stays on EPR EU Connect, our €89-a-month packaging data service. |
| Excluded | Dual-system licence fees and scheme fees: we pass them on at cost, so there is nothing to share. |
| When paid | Once your client has paid us. |
| Client price | The same published price as anyone else. Your fee comes out of ours. |
| Who keeps the client | You. Each client signs its own mandate with our representative, because the law requires a named representative; everything outside EPR stays with you. |
| Your tools | A page at epreurep.com/yourfirm with your name and logo, a partner code, and a dashboard with leads, paid clients, their yearly fees and your fee. |
| Client data | You see a client's own account only after the client approves your access, and it can withdraw it at any time. |
