Sources · 10 dossiers, each dated
We name the register, and the day we last checked it.
Every regulatory figure on this site carries the day a person read its source.
You are about to rely on what a page says about a register you have never dealt with. This page shows where each country dossier comes from, which European texts we read in their own words, how a change reaches the site, and what we leave blank rather than guess.

Country by country
10 dossiers. Each names its register, its texts and its date.
Each dossier names the authority, the register you file with, the schemes it documents and the texts it rests on. The date is the day a person last read those sources. The country page carries the detail, and the local site is where the filing happens.

How we read
Read at the source, by a person, with a date.
Four rules decide what reaches a page. None of them is a promise about how fast; each is something you can check on the pages themselves.
-
The text, the authority, or the people who file there
A rule is read in the official journal that publishes it, on the site of the authority that runs the register, or on our own local site in that country, written by the people who file there. The press and blogs are at most a lead to the official source, read the same day.
-
A date on every figure
A threshold, a deadline or a scheme name carries the day we last read its source. Without a date, nobody can tell whether a figure is this year’s, so a figure without one is not published.
-
A watch on the European texts
A script asks the Publications Office for every act that amends, corrects or implements the 6 European acts it follows, searches the Commission’s consultations on 5 subjects, compares 3 of its pages with their last reading, and lists the pages of this site that cite each one.
-
A person signs off every change
When a fact moves, the change is prepared with its source and read by a person before anything is published. Nothing reaches the site on its own, and every rule change that does is entered in a public log, with its source and the day it was read.
Before any quote
Nobody's file is auto-submitted.
The sources tell us what a country asks. A person then checks that your answers fit it, before a quote goes out. These are the 4 things they look for.
-
That you are on the right route
Where you are established and how you sell decide who places the goods on the market. Get this wrong and every file after it is wrong.
-
That the streams are separated
A Bluetooth speaker in a cardboard box is three streams, not one. Mixing them is the most common reason a file comes back.
-
That your data matches what the country asks
Some countries declare per material, some per unit, some both. We check the shape of your data before it goes anywhere.
-
Whether a deadline is actually reachable
If a marketplace has given you a date we cannot make, you hear it before you pay, not after.
What we leave blank
An empty field is a source we have not found.
We would rather show you a gap than fill it from memory. These are the gaps in our dossiers today, counted from the dossiers themselves.
- 10/10 dossiers carry a declaration date The others publish none we can tie to a primary source. Their country page says so instead of guessing.
- 1/10 carry an indicative registration time Times found on secondary sources do not become promises on a country page.
- 1/10 carry a threshold Where a country’s thresholds are not exposed in a source we have read, the dossier carries none.
- 1/10 name no scheme at all Where the scheme depends on the product, the dossier names the register and leaves the contract to the review.
- No scheme’s rates, anywhere A contribution depends on your volumes and materials, changes on the scheme’s calendar, and is the scheme’s to publish. What moves a scheme fee
