Lookback: 1 year after EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation kicked in

“Shipping to EU countries now requires an authorised representative”

EU law requires a fixed cost of €350–700 per country per year for shipping, making it hard for small businesses to compete

What I wish I knew
"More exemptions for small businesses"
If I could tell you one thing
"Research and follow the new EU regulations carefully, and consider alternative sales channels"
