Clothing and linen EPR on Etsy for sales to France
A maker selling clothing to France usually needs two numbers: textiles and packaging.
What Etsy asks for
Etsy asks for your EPR number for each relevant product category, and it is also shown to buyers. You enter it in Shop Manager › Finances › Legal and tax information › Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Registrations › Add info (France). Its France page does not publish what happens if you do not. Etsy
From the platform's own seller page, read on 4 October 2026: all platforms side by side.
