Where can I sell › France
Do I need to register packaged goods to sell to France?
Yes, if the products you send to France fall inside this stream. Registration goes to ADEME — French Environment and Energy Management Agency (registration via SYDEREP). Etsy: registration is for “an EPR unique identification number for each relevant product category through the French Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME)”, on the SYDEREP platform, and the seller must “adhere to a relevant Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) or … set up an equivalent individual system”. You will be asked for: EPR unique identification number (identifiant unique), per product category.

No quantity threshold is shown unless the authority publishes one. Most do not — the figure lives in the legal text, and this page reports what the register itself states rather than interpreting law.
