How to join the system

Your firm/company can join the EKO‑KOM system by signing a Contract on Collective Compliance. The following four points describe how to proceed in signing the Contract on Collective Compliance and joining the EKO‑KOM system.

1. Registration Form

The first step when joining the System EKO‑KOM is to complete Registration Form.

Registration Form for Non-Czech companies:

>>> Registration Form for Non-Czech companies <<<

Registration Form for Czech companies (for companies with CZ ID, in Czech language):

>>> Registration Form for Czech companies <<<

After having received the Registration Form, we will send you by e-mail Confirmation of receiving Registration Form. This confirmation can be presented, for instance to customs authorities before the Contract is signed.

IAn entrepreneur who, through the use of means of distance communication (online), sells disposable plastic packaging or packaging means listed in parts C or D of Annex No. 4 to the Packaging Act directly to consumers or other end users in the Czech Republic from another state where he is established, is obliged to appoint an authorised representative for the purpose of fulfilling the duties established by this law.
If your company is not established in the Czech Republic and does not fall under the above-described category, you are entitled to appoint an authorised representative voluntarily, but it is not mandatory.

2. Contract on Collective Compliance

After verifying the Registration Form to ensure we have all the necessary information, we will send you the Contract on Collective Compliance in PDF format to the email address provided in the form. Once signed electronically by a statutory representative or an authorized person with a power of attorney (please attach the power of attorney to the email in this case), kindly send to our company’s email address at smlouva@ekokom.cz. After the contract is signed by our authorized representative, the fully executed contract will be sent back to you.

If you do not have an electronic signature and wish to sign the contract in paper form, please contact us at smlouva@ekokom.cz.

The contract is valid from the calendar quarter in which it is signed and covers packaging production for the entire calendar quarter.

3. Payment of Fee

After signing the Contract on Collective Compliance, an invoice for annual fee will be issued in amount of  CZK 1,600 excluding 21% VAT (administrative fee of CZK 800 + CZK 800 mandatory fee for the State Environmental Fund).

4. System Participant Certificate

When we receive payments of the invoice for annual fee, you will be sent a System Participant Certificate with an assigned Client No., under which your firm/company has been registered in the system.
