This guide was created for informational purposes only, and does not, nor is intended to, constitute or be construed as legal advice on any subject matter. Should merchants require assistance or have any questions concerning these regulations, merchants’ independent obligations/duties, or the subject matter/information in this guide please reach out to legal counsel.

To ensure compliance with Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program requirements and Merchant Policy 13, merchants selling applicable categories of products into France, Germany, Austria, and Sweden are required to submit valid EPR registration number(s) for these product categories to Wish. Merchants in violation may be blocked from selling products into France, Germany, Austria, Spain, and Sweden and may be subject to other consequences until they provide relevant EPR registration number(s) to Wish. Please see our EPR program requirements guide for more details, including specific product categories covered by EPR program requirements and Product Responsibility Organizations (PROs) that merchants can register with to obtain EPR registration number(s).

See below for a walkthrough of how to submit EPR registration numbers to Wish via Merchant Dashboard and API.
