# Denmark EPR

Last verified: November 5, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/denmark

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

Denmark requires producers who place packaging on the market to meet packaging EPR duties under Danish producer responsibility for packaging, administered through the national register kept by Dansk Producentansvar. The regulator is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority). We record 1 threshold and 5 dated deadlines. 9 of 15 core rule fields are verified against primary sources.

## Packaging EPR in Denmark: what we have verified

This page collects what we have verified about packaging extended producer responsibility (EPR) in Denmark. 9 of 15 core rule fields are published from primary sources and 6 are not yet published. The dataset was last reviewed on November 4, 2026, and the newest source on this page was retrieved on November 4, 2026.

<a id="regime"></a>The packaging EPR regime in Denmark is recorded as Danish producer responsibility for packaging, administered through the national register kept by Dansk Producentansvar.

<a id="regulator"></a>The regulator named for Denmark is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority).

<a id="obligated"></a>Producers placing packaging on the market in Denmark carry a packaging EPR obligation.

Paraphrase: Companies covered by producer responsibility for packaging must register in the producer responsibility register.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Denmark: who the rules apply to, transfer of the obligation, the revenue basis, treatment of affiliates, the material categories, and filing languages. Each of these stays blank until a primary source is verified; we do not fill gaps from memory or from other jurisdictions.

<a id="who"></a>

## Who is the producer in Denmark

In Denmark, packaging EPR obliges producers to organise or fund the collection and recycling of the packaging they place on the market. The sections below set out who counts as the producer, which thresholds decide whether a business is in scope, and what has to be filed.

The producer hierarchy decides who answers for a pack when several businesses touch it. For Denmark, the dataset names the following roles for each packaging level.

<a id="producer-hierarchy"></a>**Who is the producer in Denmark, by packaging level**

| Packaging level | Producer roles recorded |
| --- | --- |
| primary (sales) packaging | manufacturer or brand owner, importer, first distributor |
| secondary packaging | manufacturer or brand owner, importer, first distributor |
| service packaging | manufacturer or brand owner, importer, first distributor |
| shipping packaging | online marketplace seller, manufacturer or brand owner |
| tertiary (transport) packaging | manufacturer or brand owner, importer, first distributor |

<a id="producer-default"></a>In Denmark, the party that carries the obligation by default is the manufacturer or brand owner, importer, and first distributor.

<a id="transfer"></a>Whether the obligation can be transferred in Denmark: not yet published. Reason: Not read from a primary source in this pass.

<a id="affiliates"></a>Whether affiliates are counted together in Denmark: not yet published. Reason: Not read from a primary source in this pass.

<a id="revenue-scope"></a>The revenue basis in Denmark: not yet published. Reason: Not read from a primary source in this pass.

Roles matter because an online seller, an importer and a brand owner can each be the producer for the same pack, and a pack is counted once. If you sell into Denmark through a marketplace, check whether the marketplace or you are recorded as the obligated party. Confirm who is responsible for reporting.

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

## Thresholds that apply in Denmark

Thresholds decide whether a business is in scope, whether it pays fees, or whether it can file a simplified report. Denmark publishes 1 verified threshold.

<a id="thresholds-table"></a>**Thresholds recorded for Denmark**

| Measure | Amount | Effect | Note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [tonnage](#threshold-dk-min-fee) | 3.35 tonnes | a flat-fee band applies | At or below the weight limit the annual minimum fee of DKK 250 applies. |

<a id="threshold-dk-min-fee"></a>Denmark sets a tonnage threshold of 3.35 tonnes; effect: a flat-fee band applies.

Basis of the tonnage threshold: packaging marketed in the previous year.

> Hvis jeres markedsførte mængde er lig med eller under denne grænse, udgør gebyret 250 DKK uanset den beregnede gebyrsats.
>
> Source: Threshold (https://producentansvar.dk/produkter-og-ansvar/oekonomi/gebyrsatser/), Retrieved: November 3, 2026, Language: da

Paraphrase: If the quantity you placed on the market is equal to or below this limit, the fee is DKK 250 regardless of the calculated fee rate.

<a id="exemptions"></a>

## Exemptions in Denmark

An exemption removes or reduces a duty for a defined group. Denmark lists 1 exemption in the dataset. Some apply automatically; others only apply if you ask the regulator for them, usually within a window.

<a id="exemption-exemptions-not-itemised"></a>An exemption in Denmark: not yet published. Reason: Not read from a primary source in this pass.

<a id="registration-system"></a>

## Registration and the system in Denmark

Registration is where an obligation becomes visible to the regulator. The records below show whether Denmark asks producers to register, with whom, and which organisation or scheme carries the collection and recycling system.

<a id="registration"></a>Producers in Denmark must register with Producentansvarsregistret (Dansk Producentansvar), which issues the CVR/VAT number.

Who registers: Businesses making covered packaging available on the Danish market

[Registry](https://producentansvar.dk/produkter-og-ansvar/emballage/) (opens the official registry page).

> Hvis I for eksempel registrerer jer på Emballage som jeres første produktområde, betaler I 1.000 DKK.
>
> Source: Registration (https://producentansvar.dk/produkter-og-ansvar/oekonomi/pris-for-registrering/), Retrieved: November 3, 2026, Language: da

Paraphrase: For example, if you register for Packaging as your first product area, you pay DKK 1,000.

<a id="organisation"></a>In Denmark, the system runs through registered schemes that producers join: Dansk Producentansvar (national register, DPA).

Applies to: National rule not verified; PPWR Art 45(3) from 12 Aug 2026

> Nogle kollektive ordninger tilbyder at håndtere betalingen af jeres gebyrer til DPA.

Paraphrase: Some collective schemes offer to handle the payment of your fees to DPA.

<a id="categories"></a>The material categories in Denmark: not yet published. Reason: Reporting category list not read.

<a id="deadlines"></a>

## Deadlines in Denmark

Denmark records 5 deadlines, 5 of them verified. This page gives the summary; every date, the period it covers and what it requires are on the deadlines page for Denmark.

Every verified date we hold for Denmark falls on or before November 9, 2026, so none is still ahead. Check the regulator for the next one.

3 obligations recur on a fixed day each year rather than on a single date.

See every deadline for Denmark, with its period and what it requires, on the Denmark deadlines page.

A deadline is a date the regulator published, not a date we set. We can estimate what you may owe and prepare the report file; you sign and submit it in the regulator's own portal.

<a id="fees-reporting"></a>

## Fees and reporting in Denmark

Denmark publishes 3 fee schedules, for fee years 2025, 2026, and 2027. The schedule sets what each kind of packaging costs; the rates themselves are on the fee pages, not here.

- Denmark 2025 fees: rates by material for fee year 2025.
- Denmark 2026 fees: rates by material for fee year 2026.
- Denmark 2027 fees: rates by material for fee year 2027.

The report you file is a defined file or form. Denmark records 1 format; we prepare the file to that specification and you upload it yourself.

Denmark packaging declaration (working layout) is a csv file submitted through Not identified; the customer signs in to the recipient's service and submits. The customer reviews, signs and submits it.

Columns, material mapping and the checks a file must pass are on the Denmark report format page.

<a id="material-fees"></a>

## Denmark: packaging fees by material

Instica groups the verified rates of the 2027 DPA annual fees (packaging) schedule for Denmark into 1 material classes. For each class the table gives the lowest and highest published rate in DKK per kilogram and the unweighted mean in DKK per tonne, with a link to the source the rates were read from, retrieved November 3, 2026.

<a id="material-rates"></a>**Fees by material class, Denmark 2027**

| Material | Categories | Lowest (DKK per kilogram) | Highest (DKK per kilogram) | Mean (DKK per tonne) | Source |

Instica holds 2 schedules for Denmark priced in the same currency, from 2026 to 2027. The table gives the unweighted mean per tonne of each material class in each schedule, and the change from the earliest schedule in which the class appears to the latest.

<a id="obligations"></a>

## Labelling, languages, targets and penalties in Denmark

<a id="labelling"></a>No mandatory packaging labelling is recorded for Denmark.

Labelling note: Marking is optional. If used: as set out in bilag 1 with abbreviations and number codes; on the packaging itself or on its label; clearly visible and legible (§ 13).

Paraphrase: Packaging made available on the Danish market may bear a packaging marking

<a id="languages"></a>Languages in Denmark: not yet published. Reason: Not read from a primary source in this pass.

<a id="target-ppwr-art52-1"></a>Denmark sets a target for packaging-waste recycling targets of PPWR (EU) 2025/40 Art 52(1): as set in PPWR Art 52(1); no national figures per PPWR Art 52(1).

<a id="penalty-1"></a>Denmark lists a penalty for Marking packaging contrary to § 13 (§ 118(1) nr. 14), with no amount recorded. Escalation: Up to 2 years' imprisonment if intentional or grossly negligent and the breach caused environmental harm or danger, or aimed at an economic gain (§ 118(2)).

<a id="penalty-2"></a>Denmark lists a penalty for Making packaging available without registration in the producer register (§ 118(1) nr. 15), with no amount recorded. Escalation: As above (§ 118(2)).

<a id="penalty-3"></a>Denmark lists a penalty for Failing to report, or giving false or misleading information, under §§ 21-25 (§ 118(1) nr. 20), with no amount recorded. Escalation: As above (§ 118(2)).

<a id="penalty-4"></a>Denmark lists a penalty for Producer not joining a producer responsibility organisation, § 77 (§ 118(1) nr. 42), with no amount recorded. Escalation: As above (§ 118(2)).

Labelling, language, target and penalty rules are the parts of a regime that are easiest to miss. A report filed in the wrong language or a pack without a required mark can cost as much as a late payment, so read each of these against your own products.

## Denmark compared with nearby places

Rules do not stop at a border. A business that sells into Denmark usually sells into its neighbours too, and the thresholds and deadlines differ. The table reads Denmark against the places closest to it that have verified data.

## Denmark read against each neighbour

Each paragraph reads Denmark against one place from the table above, using only records verified for both. A part is left out when either side is not yet published.

Denmark and [Germany](#cmp-DE-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. The regulator is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority) in Denmark and [Zentrale Stelle Verpackungsregister (ZSVR), which runs the LUCID Packaging Register; competent state authorities enforce](#cmp-DE-regulator) next door. Denmark runs registered schemes that producers join, while Germany runs [more than one producer responsibility organisation](#cmp-DE-organisation). Registration is required in both. The first threshold is 3.35 tonnes of tonnage in Denmark against [10 tonnes of tonnage](#cmp-DE-threshold) in Germany, so a seller can be in scope here and below the line next door. The earliest recorded deadline is August 12, 2026 in Denmark and [December 31, 2026](#cmp-DE-deadline) in Germany, 141 days earlier here.

Denmark and [Belgium](#cmp-BE-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. The regulator is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority) in Denmark and [Interregional Packaging Commission (IVC-CIE, now EPRiBEL)](#cmp-BE-regulator) next door. Denmark runs registered schemes that producers join, while Belgium runs [more than one producer responsibility organisation](#cmp-BE-organisation). Registration is required in both. The first thresholds are measured differently: 3.35 tonnes of tonnage in Denmark and [300 tonnes of single-use packaging per year of tonnage](#cmp-BE-threshold) in Belgium, so the figures cannot be compared directly. The earliest recorded deadline falls on the same day in both, August 12, 2026.

Denmark and [Italy](#cmp-IT-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. The regulator is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority) in Denmark and [Ministry of Environment and Energy Security (MASE); CONAI coordinates the consortium system](#cmp-IT-regulator) next door. Both run registered schemes that producers join. Registration is required in both. The first thresholds are measured differently: 3.35 tonnes of tonnage in Denmark and [10 tonnes per calendar year of packaging weight](#cmp-IT-threshold) in Italy, so the figures cannot be compared directly. The earliest recorded deadline falls on the same day in both, August 12, 2026.

Denmark and [Austria](#cmp-AT-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. Denmark runs registered schemes that producers join, while Austria runs [more than one producer responsibility organisation](#cmp-AT-organisation). Registration is required in both. The first thresholds are measured differently: 3.35 tonnes of tonnage in Denmark and [1500 kg per calendar year of packaging weight](#cmp-AT-threshold) in Austria, so the figures cannot be compared directly. The earliest recorded deadline is August 12, 2026 in Denmark and [January 1, 2023](#cmp-AT-deadline) in Austria, 1319 days later here.

Denmark and [Switzerland](#cmp-CH-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. The regulator is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority) in Denmark and [Cantons enforce (Art 25); the Federal Office for the Environment (BAFU) receives the reports and mandates and supervises the glass-fee organisation (Art 14-15, 21-24)](#cmp-CH-regulator) next door. Denmark runs registered schemes that producers join, while Switzerland runs [more than one producer responsibility organisation](#cmp-CH-organisation). The first thresholds are measured differently: 3.35 tonnes of tonnage in Denmark and [1,000 of units](#cmp-CH-threshold) in Switzerland, so the figures cannot be compared directly. 

Denmark and [Bulgaria](#cmp-BG-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. Denmark runs registered schemes that producers join, while Bulgaria runs [more than one producer responsibility organisation](#cmp-BG-organisation). The first thresholds are measured differently: 3.35 tonnes of tonnage in Denmark and [10 tonnes per year of tonnage](#cmp-BG-threshold) in Bulgaria, so the figures cannot be compared directly. The earliest recorded deadline falls on the same day in both, August 12, 2026.

Denmark and [Spain](#cmp-ES-obligated) both record an obligation for packaging producers. The regulator is Energistyrelsen (supervisory authority) in Denmark and [Ministry for the Ecological Transition (MITECO), Directorate-General for Environmental Quality and Assessment](#cmp-ES-regulator) next door.

## Where Denmark sits among the places we cover

Counted by verified core records, Denmark holds 9 of 17 and ranks 22 of 53 places in the dataset. The places just ahead of it are [Croatia](https://instica.com/epr/croatia) (10), [Latvia](https://instica.com/epr/latvia) (10), [Norway](https://instica.com/epr/norway) (10), [Washington](https://instica.com/epr/washington) (10), [Nova Scotia](https://instica.com/epr/nova-scotia) (9) and [Germany](https://instica.com/epr/germany) (9). The places just behind it are [Netherlands](https://instica.com/epr/netherlands) (9), [Sweden](https://instica.com/epr/sweden) (9), [Maine](https://instica.com/epr/maine) (9), [Minnesota](https://instica.com/epr/minnesota) (9), [Manitoba](https://instica.com/epr/manitoba) (8) and Czechia (8).

Counting every verified record, not only the core fields, Denmark holds 17 and ranks 16 of 53. Ahead of it are [California](https://instica.com/epr/california) (20), [Minnesota](https://instica.com/epr/minnesota) (19), [Germany](https://instica.com/epr/germany) (18), [Maryland](https://instica.com/epr/maryland) (18), [Bulgaria](https://instica.com/epr/bulgaria) (17) and Czechia (17).

All 31 places in this region in the dataset record an obligation, so Denmark is not an outlier among its neighbours.

Ordered by earliest verified deadline, Denmark comes 15 of 41, on August 12, 2026. Before it come [Québec](https://instica.com/epr/quebec) (May 31, 2026, 73 days earlier), [Maryland](https://instica.com/epr/maryland) (May 31, 2026, 73 days earlier), [Minnesota](https://instica.com/epr/minnesota) (May 31, 2026, 73 days earlier), [Belgium](https://instica.com/epr/belgium) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day), [Bulgaria](https://instica.com/epr/bulgaria) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day) and [Cyprus](https://instica.com/epr/cyprus) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day). After it come [Estonia](https://instica.com/epr/estonia) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day), [Spain](https://instica.com/epr/spain) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day), [Finland](https://instica.com/epr/finland) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day), [France](https://instica.com/epr/france) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day), Greece (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day) and [Croatia](https://instica.com/epr/croatia) (August 12, 2026, 0 days on the same day).

Among places whose first threshold is also counted in tonnage, Denmark sits 2 of 5 from the lowest. The table sets it beside the places just below and just above.

<a id="threshold-ladder"></a>**First thresholds near Denmark, lowest first**

<a id="prepare"></a>

## What to prepare for Denmark

1. Work out whether you are the producer for each product you sell in Denmark, using the producer roles above.
2. Compare your Denmark revenue and packaging weight with each threshold in the table; keep the working.
3. Register with Producentansvarsregistret (Dansk Producentansvar) before you report or pay.
4. Put every dated deadline above in your calendar, with the period it covers.
5. Collect packaging weights by material so the report file can be prepared to the format above.
6. Sign and submit your filings yourself in the regulator's portal; Instica never stores portal credentials and never files for you.

Instica measures packaging, estimates what you may owe and prepares the report file. It does not decide whether you are obliged; that stays with you and the regulator.

<a id="method"></a>

## How to read this page

Every statement on this page is generated from a verified record, and each record keeps its source address, the date we retrieved it, and, where the source is a statute or notice, the quoted text. A value marked "not yet published" has no verified source yet; we show the reason instead of a number.

Quotes are shown in the language of the source with a labelled summary in English. The summary helps you read; the quote is what the source says. If the two ever differ, the quote governs.

Denmark has 9 of 15 core fields verified. The remaining 6 are listed in the overview. When one of them is published, the page changes and the "last verified" date moves; until then, the safest assumption is that the answer is unknown, not that it is no.

## What an open field means in practice

A field is marked not yet published when no primary source we can cite says what it needs to say. Below, each open field for Denmark is listed with the reason we recorded and what it means for a business that sells there while the field stays open.

- **Who the rules apply to**: Who the rules apply to decides whether small, foreign or online sellers are in scope; until it is published, assume nothing in either direction.
- **Transfer of the obligation**: Transfer rules say whether you can hand the duty to a distributor or a service provider; until they are published, assume the duty stays with you.
- **The revenue basis**: The revenue basis decides which sales count toward a threshold; keep revenue split by place so any basis can be applied later.
- **Treatment of affiliates**: Whether affiliates are added together affects group companies; keep group revenue and tonnage by entity.
- **The material categories**: Material categories decide how packaging is grouped for fees; weigh and record packaging by material so any grouping can be applied.
- **Filing languages**: The filing language decides whether you need a translation of your report; confirm before you prepare the file.

We re-check open fields when a source changes and when a reviewer flags one. If you hold a primary source that answers an open field for Denmark, the data-gaps page explains how to send it; we publish a field only after we can cite the source and its date.

## What this means for different sellers in Denmark

Because Denmark records a packaging EPR obligation, each of the following sellers should expect to do some work. What differs is who the producer is and which threshold applies.

#### A brand owner that makes or packs its own goods

You are the likeliest producer. Count the packaging you put into Denmark by material, compare it with the thresholds, and register (the dataset records that registration is required). Keep the weights; every later step starts from them.

#### An importer or reseller of branded goods

Importers are named producers in many regimes. Check the producer roles above: if the importer is listed for a packaging level, the duty for that pack can move to you from the brand owner, and the brand owner may ask for proof that you handle it.

#### A seller that ships through an online marketplace

Some regimes make the marketplace answerable and some leave the duty with you. This page lists the roles recorded for Denmark; where the marketplace role is not listed, assume you remain responsible and check the marketplace's own seller guidance.

#### A small seller that sells only a few parcels a year

Compare your figures with the 1 verified threshold above. Being under a threshold can mean no fee, a simplified report or only a registration; read the effect column, because it is not always full relief.

<a id="mistakes"></a>

## Common mistakes with Denmark packaging EPR

Most problems with packaging EPR do not come from the rule itself; they come from a few repeated slips. These are the ones to avoid when you work from the records for Denmark.

- Treating "not yet published" as "no". An open field means we do not know, and the safe reading is that a duty may exist.
- Using another place's threshold. Denmark sets its own figures (see the table); a neighbour's number does not carry over.
- Measuring in the wrong unit. Thresholds are written in kilograms, tonnes or a currency; convert before you compare.
- Counting the wrong period. The period a deadline covers is part of the rule, and the table shows it where it is published.
- Assuming a marketplace or a supplier handles reporting. Confirm in writing who the producer is for each pack and who is responsible for submission.
- Filing on a calendar you copied from last year. Dates move; use the dated records on this page and recheck near the deadline.

The records show what the published sources say. A decision with real exposure belongs with the regulator or a qualified adviser.
