# Italy EPR deadlines 2026

Last verified: November 4, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/italy/deadlines

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

Italy has 2 verified packaging EPR deadlines in the Instica data, reviewed on September 29, 2026, the first falling June 1, 2026. The kinds of date are other date, report deadline. Each carries the period it covers and a quoted source, and you sign and submit every filing yourself.

<a id="glance-intro"></a>

Italy has 2 verified deadlines in the Instica data. Verified means that the date or rule was read from a primary source on the retrieval date shown beside it, with the quote kept in the language of the source. A date that no primary source states is not shown as a date at all: it appears further down as not yet published, with the reason.

By shape, the entries are 1 with a fixed calendar date, 1 that repeat on the same day every year. The table lists them in date order, then by kind. The sections after it take each date in turn, then explain what the kinds of date ask of a producer, how to read a yearly rule or a month-only rule, and what to prepare before the day arrives.

## Italy: the 2026 calendar worked out day by day

This section places the 2 dated entries for Italy on the 2026 calendar. A yearly rule is placed on its day in 2026; a fixed date is used as the source gives it. The weekday, the day of the year, the ISO week and the quarter are worked out from that date, and the distance to the review of September 29, 2026 is counted in days. The first entry falls on June 1, 2026 and the last on August 12, 2026.

Report: Monday, June 1, 2026. This is day 152 of the year, in ISO week 23 and quarter 2. It lay 120 days before the review date, and it is the first entry of the year.

Other date: Wednesday, August 12, 2026. This is day 224 of the year, in ISO week 33 and quarter 3. It lay 48 days before the review date, and 72 days after the previous entry (report deadline).

Across 2026 the 2 dated entries for Italy spread over 72 days, from the first to the last. By quarter the count is Q1 0, Q2 1, Q3 1, Q4 0.

The longest wait between two entries is 72 days, from June 1, 2026 to August 12, 2026. None of the 2 dates falls on a Saturday or Sunday in 2026.

By kind, the 2026 entries for Italy are Report 1, Other date 1. By weekday they are Monday 1, Wednesday 1. Counted from the review on September 29, 2026, the first entry falls 120 days before it and the last 48 days before it.

<a id="kind-compare"></a>

June: Report on Monday the 1st.

August: Other date on Wednesday the 12th.

<a id="weekdays"></a>

## Italy: how the weekday moves from year to year

A yearly rule keeps its day and month, but the weekday moves from one year to the next. For the entries of Italy that land on a day in more than one of 2026, 2027, 2028, the weekday in each year is shown below.

Report: 2026 on a Monday (June 1, 2026); 2027 on a Tuesday (June 1, 2027); 2028 on a Thursday (June 1, 2028). The day is a weekday in each of these years.

<a id="kinds"></a>

## What each kind of date means

#### <a id="kind-other"></a>Other date

Some dates in the source are neither a registration, a report nor a payment, for example a date from which a rule applies or a notice period. They are listed with the same source and quote as every other date, and the note beside each one says what it is.

#### <a id="kind-report"></a>Report

A report deadline is the date by which the packaging quantities for a stated period have to reach the receiving office or programme. The period covered is shown with the date, because the same report can be due a few months after the period ends. Instica measures and estimates the weights, prepares the file in the layout of the recipient and shows you the numbers; you sign and submit it in the official portal.

<a id="reading"></a>

## How dates, yearly rules and month-only rules read

A fixed date is shown as the source gives it, formatted for your language. It is a calendar day, not a time of day, and it applies in the local time of the office that receives the filing. Where a fixed date is the first of a yearly series, the entry says so.

A yearly rule gives a day and a month with no year, and it applies again every year. The page shows the rule as the source states it and the calendar feed repeats it each year. When a rule changes, the source changes first and this page follows on the next review.

Dates in this data can be revised by the programme or the authority. Each entry shows the day it was retrieved, so you can see how old it is, and a newer source always wins over this page.

<a id="open"></a>

## Dates the sources have not published yet

Italy also has 1 entry that no primary source supports yet. They are shown as not yet published, with the reason, and they never appear as a date.

- Not yet published: report deadline. Reason: conai.org returns HTTP 403 to automated retrieval, so the declaration calendar could not be read.

> **Not yet published**: Entries marked not yet published have no primary source today. Instica never fills the gap with a guess, and the entry becomes a date only when a source states one.

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

## Who sets and receives these dates

Italy: Registration runs through [CONAI membership (declaration and contribution to CONAI, then consortium of material)](#registry); the party that registers is described as [Each producer or user that joins a consortium; foreign sellers via CONAI procedures not verified](#who-registers). The dates above are the ones that registry and its programme publish, so they are the ones your filings are measured against.

Producers meet the duty through [one of several schemes](#organisation-model); the organisations named in the data are [CONAI, Comieco (paper), Corepla (plastic), Coreve (glass), Rilegno (wood), CiAl (aluminium), Ricrea (steel)](#organisation-names); membership of an organisation is not required. Programmes can publish their own dates, such as invoice days, next to the dates of the authority, and both kinds of date are listed when a source states them.

<a id="file"></a>

## The file that goes with the date

Italy: the recipient has not yet published a file layout for these reports, so the data holds no layout to show. Instica does not fill the gap with a guess; the report-format page records what is still open. When the layout is published, Instica prepares the file in it from your measured and estimated quantities, and you upload it yourself.

Open the Italy report-format page

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

## Preparing before the date

1. Count the packaging you place on the market in the period the date covers. Weigh a sample of each pack, record the material of each part and note where each weight comes from: measured, supplied by your supplier, estimated or declared.
2. Group the weights the way the recipient groups them. The report-format page for this place lists the columns, the units and the rounding the file expects.
3. Estimate the fee from the published rate schedule, if the programme charges by weight or material, and keep the working so you can explain every figure.
4. Read the source quote under the date once more, because the programme can change a day or a period between reviews.
5. Sign in to the official portal yourself, check the prepared file and submit it. Instica stores no portal credentials and files nothing for you.

## Questions about Italy EPR deadlines

### <a id="faq-1"></a>When is the Italy EPR report due?

The data lists these report dates for Italy: Every year on June 1. Read the period each one covers in the table above, and open the source to confirm the day before you file.

### <a id="faq-2"></a>Which period does a Italy deadline cover?

The sources describe these periods: previous full calendar year. A report is usually filed after the period it covers ends, so the date and the period are different things and both are shown.

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

## Frequently asked questions

### <a id="faq-1-question"></a>Does Instica submit the report for me?

No. Instica measures, estimates and prepares the figures and the file. You sign in to the official portal, check the file and submit it yourself, and Instica never stores your portal credentials.

### <a id="faq-2-question"></a>How do I add the Italy dates to my calendar?

Use the calendar block on this page: download the file or subscribe with the feed address. Each event has the day, the kind of date and the address of the source. Dates that the source gives only as a month or in words are not in the feed.

### <a id="faq-3"></a>What if a source changes a date after this review?

The source wins. Every entry shows the day it was retrieved. Check the source address before you act, and use the next review of this page for the change.

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