Overview: EPR Registration in India

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Registration on the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) portal is legally mandatory in India for Producers, Importers, and Brand Owners (PIBOs) introducing plastic packaging, electrical & electronic equipment (E-Waste), batteries, tyres, or used oil into the Indian market. Adlux handles initial CPCB registration, EPR credit procurement advisory, quarterly/annual filings, and customs clearance certificates.

  • ✓ Brand Owners & FMCG / D2C / Ecommerce sellers using plastic packaging (Category I, II, III, IV)
  • ✓ Manufacturers and importers of electronics, IT hardware, and electrical appliances under E-Waste Management Rules
  • ✓ Lithium-ion, EV, lead-acid, and portable battery importers/assemblers under Battery Waste Management Rules

Documents Required for EPR Registration

  • 1. Company PAN, GSTIN, CIN / Incorporation Certificate & Importer Exporter Code (IEC)

Answers & Clarity

EPR Registration — Frequently Asked Questions

Is Plastic EPR Registration mandatory for all importers?
Yes! Any importer bringing goods packed in plastic packaging (primary or secondary wrap, bottles, films, bubble wrap, cartons with plastic liner) requires Plastic PIBO EPR Registration on the CPCB portal for smooth customs clearance and ongoing compliance.
What are the four categories of Plastic Packaging under EPR Rules?
Category I covers rigid plastic packaging; Category II covers flexible plastic packaging (single layer or multilayer sheets/pouches); Category III covers multilayered plastic packaging (plastic + non-plastic layer); and Category IV covers plastic sheets/carry bags made of compostable plastics.
How long does CPCB EPR Registration take?
Once complete documentation and historical procurement/sales data are uploaded accurately, CPCB typically processes EPR registrations within 10 to 20 working days.
What happens after getting the EPR Certificate?
Every registered PIBO must fulfill annual recycling targets by acquiring valid EPR certificates/credits from CPCB-registered recyclers and file annual returns before the statutory deadline to avoid environmental compensation penalties.
