Invoices from DPA and the Danish Customs and Tax Administration (SKAT)
In addition to the environmental contribution to Elretur, you must pay an annual fee to the public producer register, DPA-System. Previously, Elretur invoiced the fee for you. As you now receive the invoice directly from DPA-System, you can see an explanation of the invoice here. Portable batteries are also subject to an excise duty from the Danish Customs and Tax Administration (SKAT). If you are registered as a manufacturer of portable batteries, you will therefore receive annual invoices from the Danish Customs and Tax Administration (SKAT). You can read more about the excise duty here. Everyone subject to the extended producer responsibility in question must pay both the fee to DPA and the excise duty to the Danish Customs and Tax Administration (SKAT), regardless of whether the company is registered as an individual producer or as a member of Elretur or another producer responsibility organisation.
