For associated companies or a group, it is necessary to check who can undertake registration and/or data reporting as the authorised person. Individuals possessing authorisation or power of attorney within a circle of associated companies will qualify as persons within a company, not as third parties. These individuals can also be named as the authorised person for multiple producers within the same circle of associated companies. However, they must set up and provide a dedicated e-mail address for each individual producer. Entering the same e-mail address for multiple producers during the electronic registration process will not be accepted.

Example:

An employee of the parent company is to be the authorised person for three group entities. Three different e-mail addresses need to be set up and entered into the Packaging Register so that they are specific to each producer, such as:

firstname.lastname1@company.com, firstname.lastname2@company.com and firstname.lastname3@company.com, or
packaging1@company.com, packaging2@company.com and packaging3@company.com
