How marketplaces use them
- The marketplace must check the format and coherence of the IDUs its sellers give; the ministry suggests doing it every quarter. Ministère de l'Écologie
- ADEME gives marketplaces the full list, including withdrawn IDUs. Ministère de l'Écologie
- When an eco-organisme ends a contract it reports the withdrawal to ADEME, and the IDU is no longer valid. Ministère de l'Écologie
Checking a supplier
If you resell goods and your supplier is the producer, ask for its IDU per stream and look it up in the register; a missing or withdrawn IDU means the duty may fall on you as the first to place the goods on the French market. Ministère de l'Écologie Our IDU register page is built from ADEME's data.

Why does Amazon say my IDU is invalid?
Usually the IDU is for another stream, another company, or was withdrawn. See why a marketplace rejects an IDU. ADEME
Is one IDU enough for all products?
