Frequently asked questions
Answers about EPR in Hungary for foreign webshops and marketplace sellers.
Do I need a Hungarian tax number?
Not if your company is in the EU: MOHU accepts your EU VAT number.
Who pays the EPR fee?
MOHU invoices your company directly, based on the quantities we declare for you. Payment is due within 15 days. Our fee is separate.
How long does registration take?
Usually 2–3 weeks: about 3 working days for your KÜJ number, then about one week for MOHU.
What if you decline my registration?
Your card is only pre-authorised. If we decline, the hold is released automatically and nothing is charged.
What do I have to send you every quarter?
The kilograms of packaging you delivered to Hungary, by material, by the 10th day after the quarter. We give you a simple form.
I sell on Amazon or another marketplace. Do I still need a representative?
Yes. If your goods reach consumers in Hungary, the EPR obligation is yours, not the marketplace's.
What happens if I stop selling to Hungary?
Tell us before your renewal date. We end the representation and inform the authority.
Which languages do you speak?
English, German and Italian. We handle the Hungarian authorities for you.
