Verbringung von Abfällen in Deutschland und Europa Zustimmung

You can apply for permission to import or export waste for the shipment of waste from Germany to a third country or from a third country to Germany from SBB Sonderabfallgesellschaft Brandenburg/Berlin mbH.

Within the European Union (EU) including the EFTA states (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland), the cross-border import or export (shipment) of waste is permitted. To do this, you must have previously carried out an approval procedure (notification procedure). This procedure is mandatory for shipments of waste from the "yellow" waste list, non-listed waste and, more generally, waste destined for disposal.

Hint: Transboundary shipments of waste are subject to different rules, depending on the

• classification of waste (green or yellow waste list),
• type of disposal (recovery or disposal) and
• Recipient state.
   

If you want to export waste to non-EU or EFTA countries, you should contact the competent authority at an early stage to find out about the regulations that apply in detail.

You can find out which wastes are classified and how in the "Consolidated Waste Lists" of the Basel Convention Contact Point.

The notification shall be valid for a maximum period of one year. Only notifications on recycling facilities with prior approval can be valid for up to 3 years.

However, the authorities may also authorize shorter periods. In this case, the shipment of waste is allowed as long as the consents of all authorities are valid.

For the export of "green" waste for recovery within the EU, only information obligations apply.

For information on the required documents, please refer to Annex IA, IB, Annex II of Regulation (EC) 1013/2006.

This procedure applies to all transboundary shipments of waste.
