# Alberta vs Yukon EPR: Rules Compared

Last verified: November 5, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/compare/alberta-vs-yukon

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

Alberta and Yukon both run packaging EPR, but the rules differ. Yukon exempts only producers below the lower revenue floor, CA$1,000,000 against CA$1,500,000 in Alberta. Yukon asks for its first annual report earlier, on May 31 against June 30 in Alberta. Yukon publishes the higher per-kilogram fee in 5 of 5 shared material classes.

## Alberta and Yukon side by side

4 of 9 rows have a verified figure on each side of Alberta and Yukon; a cell reads “not yet published” when a side has none, and an exemption row reads “none recorded; see thresholds” when no exemption is on record.

<a id="glance-table"></a>**Alberta and Yukon: the measures both programmes publish**

| Measure | Alberta | Yukon | Stricter |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Registration duty | not yet published | not yet published | Not comparable |
| Producer organisation | not yet published | one producer responsibility organisation | Not comparable |
| Lowest revenue exemption | CA$1,500,000 | CA$1,000,000 | Yukon |
| Lowest weight exemption | none recorded; see thresholds | 1 tonne | Not comparable |
| First annual report date | June 30 | May 31 | Yukon |
| Published penalties | not yet published | not yet published | Not comparable |
| Report file | csv | csv | Not comparable |
| Paper fee, cheapest matched rate | 48 cents per kilogram | 136 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| Plastic fee, cheapest matched rate | 176 cents per kilogram | 588 cents per kilogram | Yukon |

<a id="calc-revenue"></a>The lowest revenue exemption is CA$1,500,000 in Alberta and CA$1,000,000 in Yukon. Yukon therefore reaches smaller sellers: a business with revenue between the two lines is exempt in Alberta but still in scope in Yukon.

<a id="calc-report-date"></a>The earliest annual report date is June 30 in Alberta and May 31 in Yukon, 30 days apart. Yukon leaves less time to prepare, so its data has to be ready first.

<a id="calc-rates"></a>Across 5 shared material classes, Yukon publishes the higher cheapest per-kilogram fee in 5, and Alberta in 0. A higher fee is not the same as a stricter rule; it is simply a larger published number per kilogram.

<a id="programme"></a>

## Who runs the programme in Alberta and Yukon

Who collects and who the producer files with, in Alberta and then Yukon.

<a id="programme-table"></a>**Alberta and Yukon: how each programme is set up**

| Aspect | Alberta | Yukon |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Regime | Extended Producer Responsibility Regulation, Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (packaging, paper products) | Extended Producer Responsibility Regulation, OIC 2024/19 (effective 2024-01-25; launched 2025-11-01) |
| Regulator | Alberta Recycling Management Authority (ARMA) | Government of Yukon, Ministry of the Environment |
| Producers obligated | Yes | Yes |
| Producer organisation | not yet published | one producer responsibility organisation: Circular Materials; membership required |
| Revenue counted as | gross revenue inside the jurisdiction, CAD, year | gross revenue inside the jurisdiction, CAD, completed year |
| Who counts as the producer | primary: brand owner, importer, seller; secondary: brand owner, importer, seller; shipping: brand owner, importer, seller; tertiary: brand owner, importer, seller | other: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; primary: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; secondary: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; service: seller, online marketplace; shipping: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; tertiary: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace |

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Alberta: the registration duty. Reason: Registry details not quoted.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Alberta: how producer organisations work. Reason: Producer-organisation wording was not quoted from the ARMA page.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Alberta: the rules on transferring responsibility. Reason: Transfer rules were not read.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Yukon: the registration duty. Reason: Registration wording not read.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Yukon: the rules on transferring responsibility. Reason: Summarised.

Where one side has not yet published how its producer organisations work, this page says so rather than assuming it matches the other side. A seller in both should check the open item before relying on the comparison.

<a id="scope"></a>

## What Alberta and Yukon cover, side by side

Each row below is one published feature of the two programmes; a cell reads “not yet published” when Alberta or Yukon has no verified entry for it in the dataset.

<a id="scope-table"></a>**Scope, producer duties, categories, labelling and targets, Alberta and Yukon**

| Aspect | Alberta | Yukon |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Producer duty: primary packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Producer duty: secondary packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Producer duty: tertiary packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Producer duty: shipping packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Reporting categories | 33, material category | 36, material category |

| Producer duty: other packaging | not yet published | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |

<a id="thresholds"></a>

## Thresholds and exemptions in Alberta and Yukon

Every verified threshold Alberta and Yukon publish, as each states it.

<a id="thresholds-table"></a>**Verified thresholds in Alberta and Yukon**

| Place | Measure | Amount | Effect | Basis as published |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | --- |
| Alberta | revenue | CA$1,500,000 | exempt below | Alberta revenue |
| Alberta | packaging tonnage | 9 tonnes | reduced duty | residential supply per year (9 t paper; 2 t rigid plastic; 2 t flexible plastic; 1 t glass; 1 t metal) |
| Yukon | revenue | CA$1,000,000 | exempt below | revenue in Yukon |
| Yukon | packaging tonnage | 1 tonne | exempt below | supply |

<a id="a-exemption-under-revenue"></a>Alberta exemption: Producers under CAD 1,500,000 Alberta revenue are exempt It does not have to be applied for.

<a id="b-exemption-small-steward"></a>Yukon exemption: Charity, under CAD 1,000,000 Yukon revenue or under one tonne It does not have to be applied for.

Read the basis column first: the same amount can exempt a producer in one programme and only simplify its report in another.

The lowest revenue exemption is CA$1,500,000 in Alberta and CA$1,000,000 in Yukon. Yukon therefore reaches smaller sellers: a business with revenue between the two lines is exempt in Alberta but still in scope in Yukon.

<a id="rates"></a>

## Fees per kilogram for shared materials

5 material classes have a published rate on both sides; each row shows the cheapest rate that fits the class.

<a id="rates-table"></a>**Cheapest published rate per kilogram by material class, Alberta and Yukon**

| Material class | Alberta (CAD per kg) | Yukon (CAD per kg) | Higher fee |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | 48 cents per kilogram | 136 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| plastic | 176 cents per kilogram | 588 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| glass | 41 cents per kilogram | 122 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| aluminium | 98 cents per kilogram | 455 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| steel | 62 cents per kilogram | 211 cents per kilogram | Yukon |

Scaling the cheapest published rate by weight shows what the gap between Alberta and Yukon amounts to for a given tonnage of one material. The amounts are the rate times the weight, nothing added.

<a id="rates-scale"></a>**Fee at the cheapest published rate for 1 to 100,000 kilograms, Alberta and Yukon**

The two layouts share a file type and a delimiter, but each programme names its own columns and categories, so one file cannot be sent to both programmes. Each report is built from the same underlying measurements and exported separately.

<a id="choose"></a>

## Which to plan for first, Alberta or Yukon

Plan around the earlier report date first. Yukon asks for its first annual report on May 31, before Alberta, so its data has to be ready first.

Check the exemption thresholds before anything else. Yukon reaches smaller sellers than Alberta, so a seller that is exempt in Alberta may still have to register in Yukon.

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

## Questions about comparing these two programmes

### <a id="q1"></a>Is Alberta or Yukon stricter on packaging EPR?

Yukon exempts only producers below the lower revenue floor, CA$1,000,000 against CA$1,500,000 in Alberta. Yukon asks for its first annual report earlier, on May 31 against June 30 in Alberta. Yukon publishes the higher per-kilogram fee in 5 of 5 shared material classes.

### <a id="q2"></a>Do I register in both Alberta and Yukon?

Alberta has not yet published its registration duty. Yukon has not yet published its registration duty.

### <a id="q3"></a>How do the fees per kilogram compare in Alberta and Yukon?

Across 5 shared material classes, Yukon publishes the higher cheapest per-kilogram fee in 5, and Alberta in 0. A higher fee is not the same as a stricter rule; it is simply a larger published number per kilogram.

### <a id="q4"></a>Which deadline comes first, Alberta or Yukon?

The earliest annual report date is June 30 in Alberta and May 31 in Yukon, 30 days apart. Yukon leaves less time to prepare, so its data has to be ready first.
