Abfallerzeugernummer beantragen

§ Sections 49 and 52 of the Closed Substance Cycle Waste Management Act (KrWG)

If you are a company that produces hazardous waste, you must apply for a waste producer number for each relevant operating site under certain conditions.

As a company, you must comply with certain registration and verification obligations when handling hazardous waste.

If you have to dispose of more than 2 tons of hazardous waste per year, you need a waste producer number.

The waste producer number

• is a nine-digit identification number that you need as a waste producer or waste owner in order to participate in the electronic waste records procedure (eANV) when disposing of hazardous waste,
• identifies the place where the waste is generated or accumulates,
• is necessary, among other things, to be able to prove the proper and environmentally friendly disposal of hazardous waste.

You need a waste producer number for disposal bills and consignment bills. You also need the number for entry in the so-called transfer bill if waste is collected and disposed of with a collective waste disposal certificate. A maximum of 20 tons per calendar year, source and waste code is permitted for this.

If you have several business sites where hazardous waste is generated, you must apply for a separate waste producer number for each site.

Notes:

• In the event of relocation, the previous producer number becomes invalid. Please apply for a new waste producer number for the new location.
• In the event of a company name change, the previous producer number will remain valid if there is no change in legal identity.

Producer numbers are farm-related identification numbers. Producer numbers are generally assigned on a site-specific basis. They are issued by the competent authority.
