# Bottles packaging EPR Portugal: what a plastic bottle costs per 1,000 packs, 2026

Last verified: October 8, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/bottle/portugal

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

In Portugal, 1,000 plastic bottles of the Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) size (24 g) carry an estimated packaging fee of €0.12 to €13.04 on the 2026 schedule. The range comes from the published rates that fit each part of the pack. Instica estimates it; you confirm the weights, then sign and submit.

<a id="what"></a>

## What this page estimates for a plastic bottle in Portugal

The plastic bottle on this page is a clear PET bottle closed with a plastic screw cap. It has 2 components, each matched to the published rates of the 2026 schedule of Sociedade Ponto Verde (SPV) Valores Ponto Verde for Portugal; weight times rate gives a fee per 1,000 packs in EUR. The figures are estimates built on starting weights.

<a id="anatomy"></a>

## What is in a plastic bottle

The bottle has two components: the PET body and the plastic cap. A label or shrink sleeve is not weighed in the starting estimate.

Starting weights, an Instica estimate for a typical pack and not a measured weight: bottle (PET plastic, 22 g) and cap (plastic, 2 g).

- **Bottle**: PET plastic, 22 g (Instica starting estimate)
- **Cap**: plastic, 2 g (Instica starting estimate)

## Worked example: 1,000 plastic bottles in Portugal

One plastic bottle of the Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) size weighs 24 g in total. For each component the table gives its weight, the matched published rates, and the fee for 1,000 packs.

<a id="worked-example-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 plastic bottles in Portugal, in EUR**

| Component | Weight each | Matched published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | ---: | --- | ---: | ---: |
| Bottle | 22 g | PET, non-urban flow, base rate to PET, urban flow, base rate | €0.11 to €11.95 | €0.0001 to €0.0120 |
| Cap | 2 g | EPS, non-urban flow, base rate to Thermoformed PET, urban flow, base rate | €0.01 to €1.09 | €0.0000 to €0.0011 |

<a id="calc-total"></a>Portugal: 1,000 plastic bottles of the Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) size are estimated at €0.12 to €13.04 in packaging fees.

Added together, the estimate for 1,000 packs is €0.12 to €13.04.

Divide by 1,000 for a single pack: about €0.0001 to €0.0130.

## How size changes the fee for a plastic bottle

The weight of a plastic bottle depends on its size. The table prices each of the 3 sizes with the same matched rates, so the only thing that changes between rows is the weight.

<a id="sizes-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 plastic bottles by size in Portugal, in EUR**

| Size | Weight each | Fee per 1,000 packs, lowest rates | Fee per 1,000 packs, highest rates | Per pack, lowest | Per pack, highest |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Small (about 12 oz) | 17 g | €0.09 | €9.23 | €0.0001 | €0.0092 |
| Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) | 24 g | €0.12 | €13.04 | €0.0001 | €0.013 |
| Large (about 1 L) | 38 g | €0.19 | €20.64 | €0.0002 | €0.0206 |

Each component of the plastic bottle priced at every size, at the matched rates for Portugal.

<a id="matrix"></a>**Fee per 1,000 packs by component and size, Portugal, in EUR**

| Component | Small (about 12 oz) | Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) | Large (about 1 L) |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Bottle | 15 g: €0.08 to €8.15 | 22 g: €0.11 to €11.95 | 35 g: €0.18 to €19.01 |
| Cap | 2 g: €0.01 to €1.09 | 2 g: €0.01 to €1.09 | 3 g: €0.02 to €1.63 |

<a id="options"></a>

## What if the plastic bottle used another material?

Suppose the main component of the plastic bottle, weighing 22 g, were made of another material. The table prices the same weight in each material class that Portugal publishes a rate for, at the lowest published rate in that class.

<a id="options-table"></a>**Same weight, different material, Portugal, in EUR per 1,000 packs**

| Material | Lowest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate | Highest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | 0.0077 EUR/kg | €0.17 | 0.3104 EUR/kg | €6.83 |
| plastic | 0.0051 EUR/kg | €0.11 | 0.5432 EUR/kg | €11.95 |
| glass | 0.0065 EUR/kg | €0.14 | 0.0868 EUR/kg | €1.91 |
| aluminium | 0.0040 EUR/kg | €0.09 | 0.0399 EUR/kg | €0.88 |
| steel | 0.0070 EUR/kg | €0.15 | 0.5219 EUR/kg | €11.48 |

<a id="options-all"></a>**Every matched rate of the other materials at 22 g, Portugal, in EUR**

| Material | Category | Published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | Paper/cardboard, non-urban flow, base rate | 0.0077 EUR/kg | €0.17 | €0.0002 |

| steel | Steel, urban flow, base rate | 0.5219 EUR/kg | €11.48 | €0.0115 |

A fee comparison only: another material changes weight and protection too.

## What a larger run of plastic bottles costs in Portugal

Fees scale with the number of packs, because the schedule charges by mass. The table repeats the worked example for larger runs of the Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) plastic bottle in Portugal. Nothing else changes between rows: the same weights and the same matched rates apply.

<a id="volume-table"></a>**Fee by run size for the plastic bottle in Portugal, in EUR**

| Packs | Total weight | Fee at the lowest rates | Fee at the highest rates |
| ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| 100 | 2.4 kg | €0.01 | €1.30 |
| 500 | 12 kg | €0.06 | €6.52 |
| 1,000 | 24 kg | €0.12 | €13.04 |
| 5,000 | 120 kg | €0.61 | €65.18 |
| 10,000 | 240 kg | €1.22 | €130.37 |
| 50,000 | 1,200 kg | €6.12 | €651.84 |
| 100,000 | 2,400 kg | €12.24 | €1,303.68 |
| 500,000 | 12,000 kg | €61.20 | €6,518.40 |
| 1,000,000 | 24,000 kg | €122.40 | €13,036.80 |

<a id="calc-pack"></a>Portugal: a single plastic bottle is estimated at €0.0001 to €0.0130 in packaging fees.

<a id="calc-blended"></a>Portugal: across all its components, a plastic bottle is priced at €0.0051 to €0.5432 per kilogram of packaging.

Taken as a whole, the pack is priced at €0.0051 to €0.5432 per kilogram of packaging, so a heavier pack costs more in proportion to its weight.

Flat fee bands, registration fees and minimum charges sit outside this per-kilogram table.

<a id="schedule"></a>

## The fee schedule behind these figures for Portugal

The rates come from the 2026 schedule of Sociedade Ponto Verde (SPV) Valores Ponto Verde for Portugal, effective January 1, 2026. The facts below record where it was published and what else the schedule charges.

<a id="fee-source"></a>Portugal: the 2026 fee schedule of Sociedade Ponto Verde (SPV) Valores Ponto Verde, effective January 1, 2026, is the source of the per-kilogram rates used on this page.

<a id="other-spv-minimum-annual-contribution"></a>Portugal: the schedule lists a further fee, “SPV minimum annual financial contribution”, of 120 EUR per year.

<a id="eco-modulation"></a>Portugal: the schedule describes its eco-modulation method as “percentage”.

The schedule also lists one other fee, which is not part of the per-kilogram estimate on this page.

The schedule describes an eco-modulation of its rates, so the fee a producer pays can be adjusted up or down from the base rates shown here.

<a id="levers"></a>

## Ways to lower the fee on a plastic bottle

Bottle weight falls when the wall is thinner, and many programmes publish a lower rate for clear PET than for coloured or opaque PET.

The cap is often a different plastic from the body, and some schedules price caps and lids on a separate line.

A deposit or take-back scheme can take a bottle out of the producer fee schedule altogether, so check whether one covers your drink or product.

Bottles of the same capacity can differ in weight by several grams between suppliers, so weigh your own bottle and cap before relying on a starting estimate.

## Questions sellers ask

### <a id="q1"></a>How much is the EPR fee for a plastic bottle in Portugal?

For 1,000 plastic bottles of the Medium (about 16 to 20 oz) size, the estimated fee is €0.12 to €13.04 on the 2026 schedule, from the published rates that fit each component.

### <a id="q2"></a>Is this the amount I will pay?

No. It is an estimate for the packaging alone. Registration fees, flat fee bands, eco-modulation and thresholds sit outside the per-kilogram figure. Instica prepares the data; you check, sign and submit it, and Instica never stores regulator login details.

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

## How these figures are made
