EPR was introduced in France on January 1, 2022, making manufacturers, importers, and distributors responsible for managing the end-of-life of products. Businesses involved with EPR products in France must finance waste management and obtain an EPR number for buyers. Online marketplace sellers, like Amazon, must comply with EPR regulations to avoid penalties and suspension. The EPR categories in France include packaging, electrical & electronic equipment, batteries, furniture, tires, paper, textiles, construction products, sports and leisure, DIY and gardening articles, oils, tobacco, toys, chewing gum, sanitary textiles, and fishing equipment.
