An open field means we do not know, and the safe reading is that a duty may exist.\n- Using another place's threshold. Romania 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. Dates move; use the dated records on this page and recheck near the deadline.\n\nThe records show what the published sources say.
