      "markdown": "<a id=\"who-pays\"></a>\n\n## Who pays and when\n\nThe fee schedule is only half of the picture. Whether a producer pays it, and by when, depends on the rules of Belgium. This section reads them from Instica's verified record of the jurisdiction.\n\nThe regime is: Belgian interregional Cooperation Agreement on packaging waste, in force in its current version since 5 March 2020; enforced by the Interregional Packaging Commission (IRPC/IVC-CIE). The regulator is Interregional Packaging Commission (IVC-CIE, now EPRiBEL).\n\n#### Thresholds\n\n1 threshold decides whether a producer must register, pay or report, or may use a simpler route. Each row gives the measure, the amount and what happens at it.\n\n<a id=\"thresholds\"></a>**Thresholds in Belgium**\n\n| Measure | Amount | Effect | Basis |\n| --- | ---: | --- | --- |\n| Tonnage supplied | [300 tonne single-use packaging per year](#threshold-prevention-plan-300t) | Triggers registration | put on the market; 100 tonnes for companies packaging in Belgium |\n\n#### Exemptions\n\n1 exemption exists. The last column says whether the producer has to apply for it or whether it applies automatically.\n\n<a id=\"exemptions\"></a>**Exemptions in Belgium**\n\n| Exemption | Description | Application needed |\n| --- | --- | :---: |\n| `reusable-packaging` | Reusable packaging carries no contribution; only the information obligation applies | No |\n\n#### Registration\n\nProducers must register in Belgium. The register is EPRiBEL producer register (formerly IVC-CIE); Fost Plus registers members collectively. Who registers: Members: Fost Plus on their behalf; non-members register directly through EPRiBEL.\n\n#### Who runs the scheme\n\nBelgium uses more than one producer responsibility organisation: Fost Plus (household) and Valipac (industrial). Membership is not required.\n\n#### Dates\n\n5 dates fall in this regime. Dates that the source has not published yet are shown as not yet published.\n\n<a id=\"deadlines\"></a>**Deadlines in Belgium**\n\n| What | Date | Period covered |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Report | Not yet published | previous calendar year |\n| Other | [September 15, 2026](#deadline-declaration-amend-2025) |  |\n| Other | [August 12, 2026](#deadline-ppwr-application) |  |\n| Registration | [August 12, 2026](#deadline-ppwr-authorised-representative) |  |\n| Report | Not yet published |  |\n\n#### Penalties\n\nThe source states these penalties. They are listed so a producer knows what is at stake; Instica does not calculate or advise on them.\n\n<a id=\"penalties\"></a>**Penalties in Belgium**\n\n| Violation | Amount |\n| --- | ---: |\n| late annual declaration (Fost Plus contract) | 1% of the previous declaration contribution per month of delay |\n\n#### Targets\n\nThe regime sets these recycling or recovery targets.\n\n<a id=\"targets\"></a>**Targets in Belgium**\n\n| Measure | Target | By |\n| --- | ---: | --- |\n| `household plastic recycling` | [70%](#target-recycling-household-plastic-2030) | 2030 (65% in 2023) |"

      "markdown": "<a id=\"guide\"></a>\n\n## How to read this schedule\n\nEvery row of the Belgium 2027 schedule is a price for one category of packaging. The unit is EUR per kilogram: the rate is what the scheme charges for each unit of that category that a producer places on the market. Instica shows the figure exactly as Fost Plus Packaging EPR rates (household) publishes it, with its source and the date Instica read it.\n\nFor comparison only, Instica also shows each rate as EUR per tonne. That column is arithmetic on the published figure with exact unit factors; the schedule itself is in EUR per kilogram, and the scheme's own invoice decides what is charged.\n\nMatch a category by the scheme's own classification, not by how you describe the product. A bottle and its closure can fall into two rows, and the same material can sit in different rows depending on what it is used for. The code in the first column is the scheme's code, and the material column shows the material the source assigns to it.\n\nOther fees are listed with the amount and the basis the source gives. They are separate from the per-unit rates and may apply in addition to them.\n\nAll 32 rows of this schedule carry a published rate.\n\n#### Estimating with this schedule\n\n1. Weigh each packaging component on its own and note its material.\n2. Find the category row that matches the component under the scheme's classification.\n3. Convert your weight to the unit of the row, EUR per kilogram, or compare in the per-tonne column when you only need a ranking.\n4. Multiply the weight by the rate. Instica keeps the rate, the weight and the source together so the estimate can be checked.\n5. Add the flat fees or other fees the schedule lists, if they apply to you.\n6. Review the total, then sign and submit it yourself in the scheme's portal."

When an invoice does not match your estimate, check these in this order.\n\nFirst, the unit. A rate in EUR per kilogram applied to a weight in another unit gives a result that is wrong by a constant factor. Second, the category: a different row can differ by a large amount for the same weight. Third, the period: this page covers the 2027 schedule, and a producer whose reporting period straddles two years may be charged under both.\n\nInstica does not know your contract. Taxes, rebates, minimum charges or membership fees may sit outside the schedule on this page, in EUR or another currency. The schedule is a published reference; the scheme's invoice decides what you owe, and a query about an invoice belongs with the scheme."

      "markdown": "<a id=\"faq\"></a>\n\n## Questions and answers\n\n### <a id=\"faq-1\"></a>What is the Belgium packaging fee schedule for 2027?\n\nIt is the list of rates that Fost Plus Packaging EPR rates (household) charges producers in Belgium for packaging placed on the market in 2027. This page reproduces 32 categories with the rate the publisher states, in EUR per kilogram, and links every figure to its source document.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-2\"></a>Which unit are the 2027 rates in?\n\nThey are published in EUR per kilogram, in EUR. Instica shows every rate in that unit with the precision of the source. The tables also give EUR per tonne, converted exactly, so schedules that quote pounds or kilograms can be compared.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-3\"></a>Which category is the most expensive in Belgium?\n\nIn the 2027 schedule the highest published rate is 4.4190 for Valorised and the lowest is 0.0399 for Aluminium ≥ 50μm, both in EUR per kilogram. The extremes table above lists the five highest and five lowest categories.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-4\"></a>Are there charges besides the per-weight rates?\n\nYes. The schedule lists further charges with their basis, such as fees that depend on producer size rather than weight. They appear in their own table with the amount the publisher states.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-5\"></a>Can the rates change during the year?\n\nA published schedule changes only when the publisher issues a new version. Instica retrieved this one on September 29, 2026. If the publisher revises it, the page is rebuilt from the new source and the retrieval date moves.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-6\"></a>How do the 2027 rates compare with 2026?\n\nThe change section compares every category priced in both years, with the rate in each year and the change as a percentage. The text above it counts how many rates rose, fell or stayed the same.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-7\"></a>Who files the report and pays the fee?\n\nThe producer does. Instica measures, estimates and prepares the figures; you check them, sign and submit them yourself in the scheme's own portal. Instica does not file for you and does not store portal credentials.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-8\"></a>Can I use this page to budget my fee?\n\nYes, as an estimate. Find your category in the rates table, multiply the rate by your weight in the same unit, and compare the result with the worked costs. The scheme's invoice decides what you owe.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-9\"></a>How current are these figures?\n\nInstica retrieved the schedule on September 29, 2026. The page shows the retrieval date, the publisher and a short quote from the source next to each rate, so you can check a figure against the original before you rely on it.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-10\"></a>What is an EPR fee?\n\nThe figures that answer this are the published rates on this page, not an estimate of any one producer's bill. Belgium packaging EPR fee schedule for 2027 lists 32 priced categories, from [0.0399](#rate-be-04) EUR per kilogram to [4.4190](#rate-be-22) EUR per kilogram.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-11\"></a>How do I recycle plastic in Belgium?\n\nThe data behind this page does not answer that question directly. It covers packaging EPR fees only, so the answer below is limited to what the sourced figures do establish. The lowest published rate is Aluminium ≥ 50μm at [0.0399](#rate-be-04) EUR per kilogram.\n\n### <a id=\"faq-12\"></a>Who pays EPR fees?\n\nWho is obliged to pay is set by the programme's own rules and by each business's role and volume, which Instica does not decide. This page only states what the fee schedule charges once a producer is obliged. Instica last retrieved the source on September 29, 2026."
