Count the packaging you put into Oregon 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.\n\n#### An importer or reseller of branded goods\n\nImporters 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.\n\n#### A seller that ships through an online marketplace\n\nSome regimes make the marketplace answerable and some leave the duty with you. This page lists the roles recorded for Oregon; where the marketplace role is not listed, assume you remain responsible and check the marketplace's own seller guidance.\n\n#### A small seller that sells only a few parcels a year\n\nCompare your figures with the 4 verified thresholds above.

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