# Austria EPR fee calculator

Last verified: November 4, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/austria/fee-calculator

<a id="answer"></a>

Austria publishes 22 category rates for packaging in the 2026 fee year, stated in euro per kilogram, and this calculator turns your weights into an estimate of the fee. For example, Paper, household is priced at 0.208 EUR/kg. The schedule also lists 3 further charges beyond the weight-based rates.

<a id="tool"></a>

## Estimate your fee

Choose the period you are reporting and the calculator picks the schedule in force, then multiplies the weight of each material you add by the published rate. It runs in your browser and stores nothing. Without JavaScript the example further down shows the same arithmetic.

Interactive tool: Fee calculator (works on the web page)

The Instica free plan covers the threshold check, exemption tracking, the deadline calendar, packaging templates and fee sources, so you can start without paying. [See what the free plan includes](https://app.instica.com/epr/free-plan)

<a id="how"></a>

## How the estimate is calculated

The calculator follows the same steps for every place, and it shows each step so you can check it against the schedule.

1. Pick the schedule in force for the period you are reporting. Where a schedule is charged on an earlier supply year, the calculator uses the schedule whose data period contains your period.
2. Convert each weight to the unit the rates are published in. Austria publishes in euro per kilogram.
3. Multiply each weight by the rate of its category. A category whose rate is not yet published returns not yet published, never a number.
4. Add the other charges the schedule lists, if you choose to include them, and where the schedule sets a minimum, apply it or tell you that your total is below it.
5. Add the lines to a total in EUR. If you ask for another currency, the calculator converts with a named published rate and says so.

## What to have ready

You get the most useful estimate with these figures to hand. This page stores none of them.

- The weight of packaging you place on the market, by material and category.
- The period you are reporting, so the right schedule is chosen.
- In the few places that publish no rate table, the rate your producer responsibility organisation gave you, which you enter yourself.
- Whether you want other charges and any minimum included in the total.
- The currency you report in, if it is not EUR.

## Rates for 2026 in Austria

The table lists every category the schedule prices, with the rate as published and the unit it is published in. Category names appear as the schedule prints them, in the language of the source.

[Every rate is in euro per kilogram. The calculator converts your weights before it multiplies.](#unit-at-2026)

## Fee years and data periods

Austria has one schedule on record. The table shows when it applies and which packaging it prices.

<a id="years-table"></a>**Austria fee schedules on record**

| Fee year | Applies from | Applies until | Priced categories |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 2026 | [January 1, 2026](#sched-at-2026) | open-ended | 22 |

<a id="spread"></a>

## Spread of the published rates

Rates in Austria differ widely between materials. Converted to one unit, the table above runs from the lowest to the highest rate as follows.

[The lowest published rate in fee year 2026 is €0.02 per kilogram, for Wood, household.](#spread-lo-at-2026)

[The highest published rate in fee year 2026 is €1.14 per kilogram, for Other composite materials, household.](#spread-hi-at-2026)

<a id="other"></a>

## Other charges in the schedule

Besides the weight-based rates, the schedule lists the charges below. They are shown as published, with their own unit, and the calculator adds them only if you ask it to.

<a id="other-charges"></a>**Austria other charges, fee year 2026**

| Charge as published | Amount as published | Basis as published |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ARA minimum fee | [90 EUR per calendar year excl. VAT](#other-at-2026-ara-minimum-fee) | per ARA Terms and Conditions VII.4 |
| ARA flat fee | [150 EUR per calendar year excl. VAT](#other-at-2026-ara-flat-fee) | per ARA Terms and Conditions VII.5 |
| ARA standard fee | [3000 EUR excl. VAT](#other-at-2026-ara-standard-fee) | per ARA Terms and Conditions XVI.5 |

<a id="eco"></a>

## Modulation of fees

How fees are modulated for design or recyclability is not yet published for Austria, so the calculator applies the base rates and says so.

> **Not yet published**: how fees are modulated: not yet published. Reason: The fetched ARA tariff sheet lists no eco-modulation; single-use plastic surcharges are on a separate sheet (Einwegkunststoff-Tarife 2026) that was not readable as text.

<a id="example"></a>

## Worked example for Austria

A producer supplies 1,000 kg of each category below in 2026. The weights are an illustration, not a typical pack, and the arithmetic is the same the calculator performs with your own figures.

<a id="example-table"></a>**Worked example, Austria, fee year 2026**

| Category as published | Quantity | Rate | Amount |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Paper, household | 1,000 kg | [0.208 EUR/kg](#rate-at-2026-1-01-0) | €208.00 |
| Glass, household | 1,000 kg | [0.108 EUR/kg](#rate-at-2026-1-02-0) | €108.00 |
| Ferrous metal, household | 1,000 kg | [0.450 EUR/kg](#rate-at-2026-1-03-1) | €450.00 |
| Plastic, household | 1,000 kg | [1.040 EUR/kg](#rate-at-2026-1-04-1) | €1,040.00 |
| Total |  |  | [€1,806.00](#example-at-2026) |

The total of the 4 lines is €1,806.00. Other charges and any minimum are not included.

Each line is the quantity in the rate unit multiplied by the rate, rounded to the nearest cent. The total is the sum of the lines.

The same 4 lines scale with the quantity. At the smaller quantity the total is €180.60, at the worked quantity €1,806.00 and at the larger quantity €18,060.00; your own figures fall between or beyond these.

<a id="example-scale"></a>**The same categories at three quantities, fee year 2026**

| Category as published | 100 kg | 1,000 kg | 10,000 kg |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Paper, household | €20.80 | €208.00 | €2,080.00 |
| Plastic, household | €104.00 | €1,040.00 | €10,400.00 |
| Glass, household | €10.80 | €108.00 | €1,080.00 |
| Ferrous metal, household | €45.00 | €450.00 | €4,500.00 |
| Total | €180.60 | €1,806.00 | €18,060.00 |

<a id="quirks"></a>

## What to watch for in Austria

These points come from the schedule on record, so they differ from place to place.

- Rates are per kilogram, so a weight in tonnes is multiplied by 1,000 before it is multiplied by the rate.
- The schedule lists charges beyond the weight-based rates, so the weight-based total may not be the whole bill.
- Some parts of the schedule are not yet published. They appear below as not yet published.

<a id="units"></a>

## Units the calculator converts

The calculator converts every weight to grams first and then to the unit of the rate, so a mix of units gives the same result as one unit.

- One kilogram is 1,000 grams.
- One tonne is 1,000 kilograms.
- One pound is 453.59 grams.
- One short ton is 2,000 pounds, or 907.18 kilograms.

## Not yet published for Austria

These parts of the schedule are not yet published in our data. We show them as not yet published, with the reason, and never as a number.

> **Not yet published**: a part of the 2026 schedule: not yet published. Reason: Separate ARA sheet; PDF text not extractable.

<a id="faq"></a>

## Frequently asked questions

### <a id="faq-how"></a>How is the Austria packaging EPR fee calculated?

Each weight is converted to euro per kilogram and multiplied by the rate of its category, then the lines are added. Other charges and any minimum are added only if the schedule lists them and you include them.

### <a id="faq-units"></a>Which units can I enter?

Kilograms, tonnes, pounds and short tons, or a count of units where the rate is per unit. The calculator converts them before it multiplies.

### <a id="faq-other"></a>Does the estimate include other charges?

Not by default. The schedule lists 3 further charges, shown above as published. Choose to include them and they are added to the total.

### <a id="faq-current"></a>How current are these rates?

They are the rates for the 2026 fee year, as published by the source and last reviewed on November 4, 2026. A rate that has changed since is not reflected until the source is reviewed again.

### <a id="faq-own-rate"></a>What if my organisation gave me a different rate?

Where a place publishes a rate table, the calculator uses the published rate. Where no table exists, you enter the rate your organisation gave you for each material, and the calculator labels the line as your rate, not a published one.

### <a id="faq-file"></a>Will Instica file or pay for me in Austria?

No. Instica measures, estimates and prepares your figures and files. You register, sign and submit each filing and pay yourself, and Instica never stores portal credentials. This page is information, not legal advice.

<a id="estimate"></a>

## How to read these figures

> **Estimate**: The figures on this page are estimates we prepare from the published sources listed below. Instica measures your packaging and prepares the numbers; you check them, sign and submit to the regulator or scheme yourself. We never submit for you and never store regulator-portal credentials.

Every figure in the app carries a data-quality label: measured, supplier, estimated or declared. [How we measure and label figures](https://instica.com/epr/methodology). This page is information, not legal advice.
