FAQ
Questions about the authorised representative
What is an authorised representative?
A company established in Poland that, under an agreement, performs the obligations of a foreign producer or importer: BDO registration, reports, fees and recycling.
Do I have to appoint one?
It depends on your products and sales model. For distance sales to consumers in Poland, e.g. of electrical equipment and batteries, it is often mandatory. The PPWR extends this requirement to packaging. We check it in a free consultation.
Do I need a Polish company or branch?
No. That is the point of a representative: it takes over the obligations without you setting up a business in Poland.
Which languages do you work in?
English, German and Polish. You receive reports and correspondence in your language.
