Continuous cycle
Registration is only the beginning
After you receive a number, reporting, payments, renewals and rule changes continue. SMBF connects them in one operational process.
Prepare registration
For each country, gather the documents, registration number, operator contract and representative where required.
Calculate and report
Connect orders to packaging composition, prepare the calculation and retain proof of filing.
Track changes
Review new rules, forms, deadlines and rates and show which countries, SKUs and reports are affected.

PPWR and national EPR
Two compliance layers, one packaging data foundation
PPWR is the EU packaging regulation applicable from 12 August 2026, with transitional rules. It covers product design, documentation and labelling. National packaging EPR registration and country reporting still apply where you place packaged goods on the market.
We track the impact on your business, not just the news
We review laws, registries, PRO and representative requirements, rates, forms, deadlines, marketplace requirements and portal changes, including PPWR and national packaging EPR. We then connect each change to your entities, countries, products and reporting periods.
- Laws and official guidance
- Rates, minimum charges and environmental coefficients
- Forms, categories and deadlines
- Portals, delays and known obstacles

One EU map · separate country workflows
All 27 countries are visible — the support level is explicit
Monitoring, obligation assessment, calculation, report preparation and filing support are shown separately for each country.
A company’s home country can also create an obligation and is not excluded from the assessment.

The answer, basis and limitation stay together
SMBF shows not only the conclusion, but also the review date, official source and facts that shaped the decision.
A law, government registry or authorised system.
If a rate depends on a contract, the result shows ‘quote required’.
AI helps prepare an action but does not sign it on behalf of the company.
The essentials
What to know before you start
You can start with one country and a free preliminary assessment.
What is PPWR and do I still need national packaging EPR reports?+
PPWR is the EU packaging regulation applicable from 12 August 2026 with transitional rules. National packaging EPR registration and country reporting still apply where you place packaged goods on the market. SMBF tracks both layers separately.
Does monitoring all 27 countries mean full service in all 27?+
No. Monitoring requirements and carrying out the work are different capabilities. Each country shows what is confirmed separately.
Should the company’s home country be assessed?+
Yes. An obligation can also arise in the country of establishment, so it is not excluded automatically.
Is there one registration number for the whole EU?+
No. Registration and operator contracts are normally arranged separately in each country where an obligation arises.
Does SMBF already submit reports automatically in every country?+
No. The filing method depends on national rules, client or partner authority and what is available in that country.
Does SMBF replace a lawyer?+
No. The system organises data and workflow; unusual legal conclusions are confirmed by the responsible party or a specialist.
