Entpflichtung (Austria)

Verified on 2026-09-01

The Austrian term for participating in an approved collection and recovery scheme (e.g. ARA, Reclay, ERP Austria, Bonus Holsystem) – the discharge of obligations via an approved scheme: the seller 'entpflichtet' its packaging, and the scheme takes over collection and recovery. For household packaging the obligation applies with no volume threshold; below 1,500 kg per year a flat-rate small-volume fee is available.
