Belgium: Simplified E-Commerce declaration for packaging

On 04 , Dec 2020 | In | By Gisa Scheschonka

Starting this year, the compliance scheme FostPlus allows a simplified reporting method for packaging in E-Commerce. This simplified declaration for E-Commerce is not obligatory. The packaging in E-Commerce can be declared in parcel units, with a minimum contribution of 100 €.

 A 10 % supplement is charged due to the simplified administrative procedure. It is not possible to take over the declaration from other companies when using this reporting option. A combination of the E-Commerce and detailed declaration can be possible if approved by the system.

Packaging types are classified into small packages (< 40 l), medium packages (40 l to 90 l) and large packages (> 90 l). Fixed declarations per product family are used for calculation, no specific information about the content of the packages is required. A weighted average Green Dot rate is available for the product families.
