Germany Device Battery Service Package with AR Authorization – 2026 Service Period for Non-German Established Customers

The German Battery Act (BattDG) governs the placement on the market, take-back, and eco-friendly disposal of batteries and accumulators. Under the EU Battery Regulation, non-German battery manufacturers without a local German branch are required to appoint an Authorized Representative (AR) in Germany starting August 18, 2025.

Manufacturers with no German permanent establishment are legally obligated to:

• Appoint an authorized representative based in Germany
• Join a professional take-back system to collect and properly dispose of waste batteries on the manufacturer's behalf
• Declare and report all market-placed volumes to the take-back scheme
• Advise end consumers on correct battery disposal procedures
• Ensure all batteries are labelled in full compliance with legal standards

We help you meet all these statutory obligations professionally.

Our comprehensive service package includes the following scope:

• Contractor official registration
• Full fulfilment of authorized representative duties under the EU Battery Regulation
• Nationwide collection and professional recycling of waste portable batteries
• Guidance and support for information disclosure and notification requirements
• Compilation of all documents required for official performance audits, plus document submission to the German Federal Environment Agency

This BattDG service offer is valid for customers whose annual market placement volumes do not exceed:

• Up to 1 tonne of portable batteries and 250,000 button cells per calendar year
• One single brand (additional brands are available via store link)

By completing your purchase, you confirm acceptance of our general terms and conditions and grant us full authorization to perform all related services on your behalf.

The listed price is valid for one full calendar year.
