3. Company service fee

The company service fee covers statutory producer registrations, customer service for companies, reporting and invoicing costs, and other administrative expenses. For large producers whose packaging volumes amount to several tonnes, this fee is weight-based up to a maximum threshold. Small producers are charged a minimum fee.

5. Late reporting fees

If the submission of the report is delayed, a late payment fee will begin to accrue until the report has been submitted. The late payment fee is 9.5% for each day of delay and is based on the recycling fees of the previous reporting period (i.e. the quantities invoiced on the basis of the most recent report).

If the reporting is delayed by more than three months from the reporting deadline, producer responsibility fees will, in addition to the above-mentioned late payment fee, be invoiced on an estimated basis, relying on previously available packaging data.

5. SUP fees 2024

SUP (Single-Use Packaging) producers will also be charged a separate SUP fee to cover the statutory cleaning, litter prevention and information costs of municipalities. SUP fees are always invoiced retroactively for the previous year.

2025 SUP charges for packaging will be published in autumn 2026, after the 2025 data have been reported by companies and sufficiently verified.

Recycling fees for previous years

2024 was the first full year of operation for Sumi as a producer organization of all packaging materials. In the price lists published before 2023, Sumi has only been included for recycling fees for plastic packaging.
