Amendment of the Packaging Ordinance in Austria from 2023

Dear Sir or Madam,

on 1.1.2023, changes to the Austrian Waste Management Act and the Packaging Ordinance will come
into force (Packaging Ordinance 2021 § 16a).

As part of our business relationship, your company has already licensed the packaging placed on the
Austrian market with an Austrian compliance scheme such as ARA AG.

The legal change allows companies based in the EU to continue licensing their packaging from
1.1.2023 only if an Austrian based authorized representative is appointed.

To continue licensing your packaging, please appoint an authorized representative. Please find
suggested solutions here:

1. FALCON Vicarius: Consulting and Compliance Services Package


Solution for large companies, as well as companies that pay attention to compliance. Comprehensive
service package with compliance added value (consulting and documentation services) which can also
be used for internal company audits and certifications.
For further information please contact: vicarius@fal-con.eu or +43 1/5037447

2. take-e-way / get-e-right: Cost-effective power of attorney package


Solution for companies that focus on the cost-efficient fulfillment of their obligations under Austrian
Packaging Ordinance.
For further information please contact: beratung@take-e-way.de or +49 40/7506870.

3. Authorized representative of your choice


It is also possible to appoint an alternative, authorized representative of your choice. It is important
that the authorized representative is registered with the Federal Environment Agency. If required, you
will receive a non-binding sample power of attorney at bv@ara.at.

4. Registering your own authorized representative


If you have an Austrian subsidiary (not branch office), you can also register this subsidiary or an
Austrian business partner as an authorized representative. If this is an option, please contact ARA AG
at bv@ara.at for information and sample documents

Please inform us in writing by the 15th December 2022 if you intend to continue licensing via an
authorised representative in Austria. When informing us, please also include information about the
appointed representative.
If we do not receive a response by the above deadline, then we will assume that you are not
appointing an authorised representative. In this case we will notify of our ARA number. You will
be charged via a direct deduction (additional discount) of 0.5% - effective from invoice date
01.01.2023.

Suppliers from EU countries for which we already release the retail and transport packaging are not
affected by this amendment. The charge will be made unchanged via direct deduction.

All suppliers from non-EU states (incl. EFTA states) cannot be pre-licensed and packaging must be
licensed by us. The charge for retail and transport packaging will be made via a direct deduction
(additional discount) of 0.5%.

Please send your response by email to liefanfaso@lutz.at

Kind regards,

Purchasing, FASO
XXXLutz KG
