Spanish EPR authorised representative · representante autorizado

Selling into Spain from abroad? A new Spanish law applies.

If you sell packaged goods to customers in Spain and have no company there, Spanish law requires you to appoint a representante autorizado established in Spain. We become that representative and run your Spanish compliance end to end — for EU and non-EU companies.

Quick answer

Since 12 August 2026, a company with no establishment in Spain that supplies packaged goods to end users in Spain — consumers or businesses that use the goods — must designate an authorised representative established in Spanish territory. There is no turnover or volume threshold. Your RPP registration stays in your name: it identifies your company, and we are recorded against it as your representative.

Mandatory since 12 August 2026

No establishment in Spain and your goods reach Spanish end users? RD 1055/2022 requires a representative, with no threshold. Real Decreto 1055/2022, enva

Your RPP registration stays yours

The RPP entry and the ENV number identify your company, so they stay yours. We do everything else: the SCRAP contract, the volume declarations and the correspondence with MITECO. Real Decreto 1055/2022, enva

€199 a year, no setup fee

The cheapest other published price is authoriseme.eu at €247. Every published price is in our open price dataset.

Selling B2B on pallets? It may cost less

Transport packaging to businesses is generally not system-participation packaging. It falls under the take-back duty in § 39, and with non-consumer customers the cost allocation can be agreed. Envalora

Questions people actually ask

Do I need a Spanish EPR representative?
If you have no company or branch in Spain and your packaged goods reach end users there, yes. RD 1055/2022 requires a representante autorizado established in Spanish territory, and PPWR Article 45(3) has made it mandatory across the EU since 12 August 2026. There is no turnover or volume threshold.
Is a Spanish VAT number or an Amazon warehouse an establishment?
No. Establishment means a company or branch in Spain. A VAT registration, a fulfilment centre or stock held in Spain does not make you established, so the obligation still applies.
What is an ENV number?
The identifier the RPP issues when you register, in the form ENV/year/nine digits. It must appear on invoices and commercial documentation accompanying packaged products, and it is the number marketplaces ask for.
What does €199 include?
Representation, RPP registration and your ENV number, the SCRAP contract concluded in our name, and both annual declarations. Scheme fees and the Spanish NIF a foreign company needs are separate, and passed through at cost.
What happens if I appoint nobody?
The marketplace you sell through becomes the producer for your goods, which is why Amazon and Etsy verify registration and restrict listings without it. Direct sellers face the sanctions regime under Ley 7/2022.

Selling into Spain without a Spanish company?

Since 12 August 2026, PPWR Article 45(3) requires an authorised representative established in Spain. We are that representative, for €199 a year.
