The facts below record where it was published and what else the schedule charges.\n\nFrance: the 2026 fee schedule of Citeo household packaging contribution (emballages ménagers), effective January 1, 2026, is the source of the per-kilogram rates used on this page.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Citeo flat fee and minimum billing”, of 110 EUR per year excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Abandoned-waste contribution per UVC with 1 packaging unit: household goods (including tobacco)”, of 0.1482 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Abandoned-waste contribution per UVC with 1 packaging unit: beverages”, of 0.1722 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Abandoned-waste contribution per UVC with 1 packaging unit: supplies and shipping parcels”, of 0.1545 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Abandoned-waste contribution per UVC with 1 packaging unit: grocery”, of 0.1631 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Abandoned-waste contribution per UVC with 1 packaging unit: fresh produce”, of 0.1231 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Abandoned-waste contribution per UVC with 1 packaging unit: hygiene, beauty, health and detergents”, of 0.1252 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Reuse financing contribution per UVC”, of 0.0140 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule lists a further fee, “Beverage grouping film contribution per UVC”, of 0.0861 EUR cents per UVC excl. VAT.\n\nFrance: the schedule describes its eco-modulation method as “percentage”.\n\nThe schedule also lists 9 other fees, which are not part of the per-kilogram estimate on this page.\n\nThe 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."

"markdown": "\n\n## Ways to lower the fee on a glass jar\n\nGlass is heavy, so glass weight dominates the total. A lighter jar for the same volume lowers the fee more than any change to the lid or label.\n\nThe metal lid and the paper label are small in mass, but they are priced as steel and paper, which can cost more or less per kilogram than glass.\n\nWhere a programme publishes a separate rate for coloured glass or for refillable glass, the colour and the reuse model of the jar can change the line it falls under.\n\nFood and cosmetics sellers often change jar size by a few grams between suppliers, which is why the size table above shows each size on its own."

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."
