The AGEC Act: a regulatory obligation that Marketplaces can no longer ignore

The AGEC law requires all online platforms (Amazon, ManoMano, Cdiscount, etc.) to check that third-party sellers comply with their EPR obligations. This includes:

• Registration with an approved eco-organization ;
  
  
• Obtain a UIN (unique identifier issued by ADEME);
  
  
• The declaration of volumes marketed for each Scheme concerned.

‍

• The transmission of eco-taxes for their WEEE and EA products

‍

This principle of "transfer of environmental responsibility" transforms marketplaces into co-pilots of EPR compliance, in the same way as producers or importers.

Risks for marketplaces in the event of non-compliance

Failure to rigorously monitor EPR on the vendor side exposes platforms to several risks:

• ADEME sanctions: fines in the event of inspection or non-compliance;
  
  
• Degradation of platform image: accusations of greenwashing or laxity.
  
  

In addition, marketplaces must produce an annual report to the authorities proving that they have checked the validity of their sellers' UIN .

Increasingly demanding requirements... in the face of a highly heterogeneous vendor base

The challenge is that sellers are not all at the same level:

• Some are unaware that they are subject to the EPR ;
  
  
• Others use invalid UIN or UINs that do not correspond to the correct Scheme ;
  
  
• Many don't know how to calculate their eco-contributions.
  
  

As a result, marketplaces are faced with a growing verification burden, which is often manual, poorly structured and time-consuming.
