Anyone placing batteries on the Spanish market must register before the first sale. Manufacturers without a branch in Spain need an authorised representative on site.
The obligation also applies if you do not sell batteries separately but ship devices with built-in or enclosed batteries.
The Hague apostille is included
Spanish registration requires a certified power of attorney bearing a Hague apostille. That fee is already included in our price – many providers charge it separately.
Scope of services
- Appointment of an authorised representative established in Spain
- Certification and Hague apostille of the power of attorney
- Registration as a battery producer
- Quarterly quantity reports for the batteries placed on the Spanish market
- Ongoing communication with the authority and the recycling system
The contracting party and invoicing entity is ECOPV-EU GmbH, based in Eschborn. The role of authorised representative in Spain is performed for us by a partner company, as the law requires a person established in Spain.
