Quantities placed on the market

In connection with the annual reporting to the DPA-System register producers and importers must report quantities in kilograms of electrical equipment (EE) placed on the market, collected, and environmentally treated during the previous calendar year.

Placed on the market

Registered producers or importers must report every year which quantities the company has placed on the market, i.e. sold on the Danish market in the previous calendar year. Quantities placed on the market must be reported in kilograms, broken down on the categories under which the producer or the importer is registered. Quantities placed on the market must be distributed on type of end-user (‘private household’ and ‘business’).

Transfer of responsibility

Producers and importers placing equipment for businesses on the market can enter an agreement with a subsequent level in the distribution chain to transfer its take-back duty. In terms of reporting such agreement is referred to as quantities subject to transfer of responsibility.
