WEEE REPORTING & AUDIT SUPPORT

Yes. Apart from officially registering as a WEEE producer, obligated companies are required to: report on a regular basis the quantities and weights of electronic products placed on the market,  provide information to end users regarding what to do with their end of life products, organize and finance the take-back and recycling of WEEE (directly or through a collective recycling organization) and submit reports to Authorities regarding their take-back and recycling activities.

If you have obligations as a WEEE producer you may also have obligations as a packaging producer in the EU countries where you sell. The Packaging Directive (94/62/EC) is older than the WEEE Directive and it does not explicitly mention obligations for distance sellers. However, several EU countries do oblige foreign entities selling directly to end users to comply with their national packaging laws. All EU countries oblige legal entities established in the same country where they sell products into to comply with packaging regulations.

Our WEEE Data & Audit Report service ensures your business properly tracks, reports, and audits data related to your WEEE obligations. We collect and validate information like sales, recycling, and compliance data, ensuring it meets European Union standards. This helps you avoid errors, penalties, and compliance gaps.

WEEE data reporting is a legal requirement for producers placing electronic products in Europe. Authorities use this data to confirm your compliance with recycling and disposal regulations. Accurate reporting also guarantees that your contributions to recycling schemes are fair and transparent.

You’ll need to provide details such as sales volumes, product weights, and the WEEE category of each product sold in European markets. Don’t worry—we’ll guide you through the entire data collection process.

Reporting requirements vary by country, but most national laws call for quarterly or annual submissions. We stay on top of these deadlines for you, ensuring that you never miss a reporting period.

A WEEE audit is conducted by authorities or recyclers to assess your business’s compliance with WEEE regulations and verify whether you are reporting and paying the correct quantities and weights. The audit may involve reviewing your data submissions, sales figures, and recycling contributions to identify any discrepancies or underpayments.

Circular Compliance supports you by validating data, preparing your team for the occasional audits, and providing guidance to ensure a smooth process. We participate in calls to clarify data and processes, prepare your team with necessary documentation, and provide expert guidance to address audit queries.

Yes, we specialize in managing WEEE data across all European countries. Each country has its own reporting standards, and we make sure your submissions meet the specific requirements for every market where you operate.
