EPR Compliance in Romania
🇷🇴 Romania Compliance Guide

EPR Registration
Romania

Romania is reached through Amazon's Pan-EU programme (primarily Amazon.de), so fulfilling stock to Romanian buyers creates a Romanian EPR obligation. The Administraţia Fondului pentru Mediu (AFM) runs the National EEE and battery registers, while Eco-Rom Ambalaje runs a packaging scheme — both required before your listings are compliant.

01

What You Must Register in Romania

WEEE EPR in Romania is mandatory under Government Emergency Ordinance 5/2015 (the Romanian WEEE law) and the packaging regime under Law 249/2015, supervised by the Administraţia Fondului pentru Mediu (AFM). Producers placing electrical equipment, batteries or packaged goods on the Romanian market must enrol in the National EEE Register and join an authorised compliance scheme. EPR registration in Romania costs £440 for Packaging, £600 for WEEE and £600 for Battery with Eldris — a one-off annual fee, never monthly. Because Romania is served through Amazon Pan-EU, sellers shipping into Romania carry the obligation directly. Eldris confirms which streams your products trigger and files each with the AFM and Eco-Rom Ambalaje.

02

The National EEE Register — Your Romanian EPR Identity

Producers are entered on the AFM-administered National EEE and battery registers and contract an authorised scheme such as Eco-Rom Ambalaje for packaging. This register entry is the evidence Amazon checks against — a distinct Romanian identity, equivalent in function to Germany's WEEE-Reg.-Nr. and not interchangeable with a German or Hungarian number.

Because Romania couples the register entry with mandatory scheme membership and an environmental-fund relationship, Eldris enrols you across the AFM registers and Eco-Rom Ambalaje, then delivers your registration confirmation formatted for Amazon Seller Central upload.

03

What Makes Romania Different

The Environment Fund (AFM) sits behind compliance: Romania channels producer obligations through the Administraţia Fondului pentru Mediu, an environmental fund that operates the registers and collects eco-tax where targets are missed. This adds a fund-reporting layer on top of scheme membership, which Eldris manages in one onboarding.

Per-brand pricing available: Romania supports additional-brand registration at £120 per extra brand placed on the market, on top of WEEE at £600 and Packaging at £440 one-off per year with Eldris — useful for sellers running multiple labels.

Authorised Representative for non-EU sellers: Romania requires a locally accountable producer, and non-EU sellers must appoint a Romanian Authorised Representative before register enrolment can complete. Eldris includes the AR appointment in the WEEE and battery lines.

04

Romanian Reporting Cycles and Deadlines

Romanian producer responsibility runs on a reporting cycle to the AFM and the compliance scheme. Producers report the quantities and weight of electronics, batteries and packaging placed on the Romanian market, with environmental-fund obligations calculated from those declared masses and missed recovery targets attracting eco-tax.

Eldris prepares the Romanian declarations from your sales data, files them with the AFM and Eco-Rom Ambalaje, and confirms receipt — so a missed Romanian filing never escalates into a Pan-EU compliance flag against your Amazon account.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the fee annual or monthly?

Each registration line is one payment a year, per country. There is no monthly billing. Each registration runs for 12 months from the date that country is registered and renews at the same price (Terms, section 5). Government, authority and scheme fees are passed through at cost, never marked up.

How long does EPR registration in Romania take?

Average time to register in Romania, from our price list: packaging, WEEE (electronics) and batteries 5–7 weeks. The clock starts when we have your documents and signed power of attorney. These are averages, not guarantees.

How much does EPR registration in Romania cost?

EPR registration in Romania costs £440 for Packaging, £600 for WEEE and £600 for Battery with Eldris. Each is a one-off annual fee — there is no monthly billing. Additional brands are £120 each, and the WEEE and Battery lines include the Authorised Representative appointment.

Can I use my German or Hungarian EPR number in Romania?

No. Romanian producer responsibility is a separate national registration in the AFM National EEE Register. A German WEEE-Reg.-Nr. or a Hungarian MOHU registration is not valid in Romania. Eldris reuses your existing business data to file the Romanian registration without a second onboarding form.

Do non-EU sellers need an Authorised Representative in Romania?

Yes, if they sell directly to consumers there. A seller established outside Romania appoints an authorised representative in Romania for packaging (Regulation (EU) 2025/40, Article 45(3)) and for batteries (Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, Article 56(3)); for electronics it registers there through an authorised representative where it is not registered itself (Directive 2012/19/EU, Article 16(1)). Eldris includes the representative in the price where the law requires one. Where the sellers on Amazon's EU marketplaces are based: Eldris seller data 2026.

What is the AFM?

The Administraţia Fondului pentru Mediu (AFM) is Romania's Environment Fund Administration. It runs the National EEE and battery registers and collects eco-tax where recovery targets are missed. Eldris handles your AFM register enrolment and fund reporting alongside scheme membership.

Do I reach Romania through Amazon Pan-EU?

Yes. Romania is served through Amazon's Pan-EU programme, mainly via Amazon.de. If your Pan-EU stock can be fulfilled to Romanian buyers, you carry a Romanian EPR obligation. Eldris registers Romania as part of your wider Pan-EU compliance footprint.
