A company not established in France that sells products of the stream “Toys” in France must appoint an authorised representative established in France (article L. 541-10-9-1 of the Environmental Code, mandatory since 10 July 2026) and join an approved eco-organisme: Ecomaison. EPR France Rep acts as that representative: we hold the membership in your name, obtain your IDU and file your declarations. Standard costs €190 a year for one stream and Plus €990 a year for up to three streams in one mandate, with a median saving of €1,071 a year in eco-contributions across our published examples. Setup is €0. Eco-contributions are paid to the eco-organisme at its published rate, with 0% markup.Sources (2)
