What the business needs to know
Manufacturers, brand owners, Indonesian exporters, importers and German distributors may have different producer roles. Evaluate contracts, sales chain, German presence and delivery to end users before assigning obligations.
Indonesia: producer waste-reduction requirements
Permen LHK P.75/2019 is already in force for covered producers, with a 2020–2029 roadmap targeting 30% waste reduction by 2029. The KLH/BPLH consultation on 6 October 2026 concerned draft revisions; proposed measures must not be misrepresented as already law.
Germany: LUCID and authorised representation
PPWR and VerpackDG have applied in Germany since 12 August 2026. Determine the liable producer from the actual sales chain. Official LUCID registration is free and producer-personal. Reuse existing records. Qualifying foreign direct sellers without a German branch need a German authorised representative.
EPRORA: marketplaces, manufacturing and DPP
EPRORA structures product/packaging master data, contracts, materials, suppliers, QR, serials and batches. Integration with Amazon, Shopify, Shopee, Tokopedia, TikTok Shop and ERP/MES depends on supported APIs and account permissions. DPP is optional and quantity zero must be possible.
