What does your checklist cover?

EU importer or brand owner placing packaged goods on the market

Which declarations and documents you must prepare before first placing on the market — and by when.

Packaging supplier or manufacturer

What data and statements your customers will ask you for, so you can prepare them in advance.

Compliance consultant or freight forwarder

A reusable checklist template you can run for each new client — instead of rebuilding it from the regulation text every time.

How it works — your checklist in three steps

  1. 1

    Tell us about your product

    Product type, target EU markets, and your role — importer, brand owner, packaging supplier or distributor.

  2. 2

    Describe your packaging

    Material types and percentages, packaging weight, and whether it's reusable, sold through e-commerce, or a format restricted under Annex V.

  3. 3

    Get your personalised checklist

    Every requirement that applies to you — grouped by category, with deadlines and a link to the source article behind each one.

Missing documents? Each item links directly to the tool that generates it for you.

Why you can trust this checklist

Built on the official regulation

Every item maps to a specific requirement of Regulation (EU) 2025/40 — with the source article linked, so you can check it yourself.

Updated for 2028 and 2030

PPWR is phased. Your checklist includes future milestones so you can plan ahead, not just react.

Role-aware

The same packaging triggers different obligations depending on whether you're an importer, brand owner, supplier or distributor. Your checklist reflects your actual role.
