EPR Registration
Spain
Selling on Amazon.es requires registration with the Registro Integrado Industrial and enrolment in an Integrated Management System (SIG). Spain has specific regional enforcement across its 17 Autonomous Communities, and non-compliance can lead to immediate listing suspension and marketplace penalties. Eldris manages the technical complexity of SIG enrolment and ensures your Spain registration is valid for Amazon validation and customs clearance.

Mandatory Compliance in Spain
For electronics sellers, Spain mandates registration in three key streams: WEEE (RAEE) for device hardware, Battery EPR for all powered components, and Packaging EPR (Ecoembes) for the materials used to ship and wrap your products. Eldris manages all three registrations through a single technical onboarding.

The Spanish SIG System
Ecotic & Ecolec: Spain uses Integrated Management Systems (SIG) to manage the collection and recycling network. Eldris selects and manages your SIG membership to ensure the most cost-effective compliance for your specific product volumes and categories.
Green Dot (Ecoembes): For packaging, producers must join Ecoembes. Fees (Punto Verde) are calculated based on the precise material types used. Eldris provides the weight and material mapping required for your annual Spanish packaging declarations.
Regional Enforcement
Spanish EPR enforcement is unique in its involvement of regional authorities across the 17 Autonomous Communities. This means local inspectors in regions like Madrid or Catalonia have the power to verify compliance independently of national registers. Eldris ensures your registration data is robust enough to withstand both national and regional audits.
Authorised Representative Requirements in Spain
Non-EU producers placing electrical equipment, batteries, or packaged goods on the Spanish market must appoint an authorised representative established within the EU. The authorised representative is legally responsible for ensuring the producer's compliance with Spanish EPR regulations. Eldris arranges authorised representative appointment as part of the Spanish EPR compliance service.
What Eldris Handles for Spain
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I spread the cost of the registration fees?
Yes. We understand that year-one compliance costs can be significant. Eldris allows you to spread your initial setup and registration fees across your first 3 months at 0% interest, easing cash flow.
Can I use my German WEEE number in Spain?
No. EPR registration is strictly national. Your German Stiftung EAR registration is not valid on Amazon.es. You need separate Spanish registration with a SIG and registration in the Registro Integrado Industrial.
What is Ecoembes?
Ecoembes is Spain's primary packaging recovery organisation. Producers must join Ecoembes and pay the Punto Verde (Green Dot) fee based on the weight and type of packaging material placed on the Spanish market.
How long does Spanish registration take?
Initial Spanish registration usually takes between 3 and 5 weeks. Eldris initiates applications within 48 hours of onboarding.
Does Amazon Pay on Behalf cover Spain?
Amazon may collect estimated fees in Spain if you are non-compliant, but this does not give you your own registration numbers or satisfy the law. Direct registration through Eldris is the only way to hold your own compliance certificates.
What reporting is required?
Annual reporting of RAEE units and weight to your scheme, plus annual packaging declarations. Eldris prepares and submits all Spanish reports for you.
Can I add Spain to my existing registration?
Yes. If you are already registered in another country with Eldris, adding Spain is simple. We reuse your company data, and the cost is £995 onboarding + £195/month management.
