News 20 October 2025

From November 1, you can apply for compensation for the part of your commercial waste that consists of packaging if you are a so-called waste-producing business. The compensation must be applied for through the producer responsibility organisation (PRO) that has been assigned the packaging fraction in the municipality where your business is located.

Find the assignment

If VANA holds the assignment in your municipality, compensation must be requested through our new portal. In the compensation portal, we have a solution that can ease the administration for you: You can choose to let your waste collector handle the request on your behalf. This saves time, reduces hassle, and provides financial security.
