Statute overview

About this statute

These rules apply to packers and importers of certain soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, and an additional tax is charged on drinks packed in retail packages that are part of an Environment Ministry-approved deposit recycling system. Approval of a deposit-based recycling system for retail packaging must be applied for from the Ministry of the Environment, and the application must include specified details about the packaging and system. Ympäristöministeriö hyväksyy vähittäismyyntipäällyksen kierrätysjärjestelmän vain, jos tietyt kierrätys-, palautus-, uudelleentäyttö-, pantti- ja seurantaehdot täyttyvät. Ympäristöministeriö may add conditions to an approval decision for a retail packaging recycling system, and may change that decision if the approval conditions or related circumstances change materially. A packer or importer must present the approval referred to in this decision to the relevant district customs chamber when requested, if they want an exemption or reduction of additional tax.
