From 12 August 2026 the PPWR makes packaging EPR a per-country duty for non-EU sellers: registration in every member state of sale plus an authorised representative wherever there is no EU establishment. Eldris Seller Index data quantifies the 1,364 sellers exposed.
1,364 non-EU-based sellers are active on the EU-4 marketplaces — every one needs an EU authorised representative plus EPR registration, led by China (540), the UK (365) and the US (200).
Of 4,641 Amazon.de sellers Eldris tracked, 1,361 (29.3%) sell from outside Germany and 503 are non-EU-based — every one carries VerpackG packaging and ElektroG WEEE obligations.
Of 944 Amazon.fr sellers Eldris tracked, 557 (59.0%) sell from outside France and 170 are non-EU-based — the most foreign-skewed EU-4 marketplace, under Citeo and AGEC rules.
1,913 active sellers on Amazon.it; 925 (48.4%) are foreign-based and 259 are non-EU — every one of them carries CONAI packaging and Italian RAEE obligations.
200 US-based sellers are active on EU-4 marketplaces — each a non-EU producer needing EU EPR registration plus an EU authorised representative under 2019/1020.

2,039 (21.3%) of 9,579 EU-4 Amazon sellers list electrical products. That makes every one of them WEEE-liable under Directive 2012/19/EU, with a separate register due in each market.
644 (6.7%) of 9,579 EU-4 Amazon sellers list battery-containing products. That makes each subject to battery EPR under Regulation 2023/1542, with a register due in every market.
628 Greater-China sellers (540 China + 88 Hong Kong) are active on EU-4 marketplaces — the largest non-EU bloc — and each needs EU EPR plus an authorised rep.
