Frequently asked questions
Does this tax only apply to domestic packaging or also to commercial and industrial packaging?
When does the tax come into effect?
How does the tax affect you depending on whether you purchase packaging or manufacture it?
If you manufacture packaging, you are affected by the tax as a manufacturer; you manage it, settle it, and pass it on to your customers in your invoices.
If you purchase packaging within the United Kingdom, you will bear the amount on the invoices issued by your supplier; if you purchase packaging in Europe, you must manage the tax as an intra-Community purchaser; and if you purchase packaging outside the European Union, you must manage the tax as an importer.
If you purchase products outside the country that are not subject to the tax (i.e. they are not non-reusable plastic packaging) but are packaged in non-reusable plastic packaging and exceed 5 kg/month, the purchaser must also proceed as an importer or intra-Community purchaser, depending on whether the purchase is made outside Europe or within Europe.
Does the tax have to be paid by the manufacturer? Does it have an impact on the end customer? Does the end customer have to carry out any kind of procedure? How does it affect them?
This tax does not affect the end customer, but the final price of the packaging/packaged product may be indirectly affected by this tax. The end customer does not have to take any action; it is the manufacturer who acts as the taxpayer and who will have to manage the tax and be responsible for passing it on.
The invoice issued must show the following items separately:
The amount of tax due.
The amount of non-recycled plastic contained in the products, expressed in kilograms.
If any exemption applies, specify the article under which the sale or delivery is exempt.
Is the special tax on non-reusable plastic packaging part of the taxable base for Value Added Tax?
