€0.10 / year

BCRS Deposit Payment

The €0.10 refundable container deposit.

A €0.10 refundable deposit is added at the producer/importer stage and refunded in full to the consumer when the empty container is returned to a retailer or Reverse Vending Machine. This is the heartbeat of the circular system.

Who is this for?

The deposit that travels with every in-scope beverage container.

What’s included +
  • €0.10 per single-use container
