What it costs before the first kilogram
This scheme is the one the rule library names for this country:
We could not obtain an official registration fee for Ireland at a source we could read logged out on 2026-09-04. Not obtained means we did not find one, not that there is none — ask the authority before you budget. On the published tariff of Repak — the scheme whose rates this site holds for Ireland — the lowest amount is €402 a year. It applies under the conditions stated in the source below, which is the page we read it from. A third fixed cost is an authorised representative, where one is required. For Ireland this library records: Indication only — confirm in writing; the representative question above has the detail. The price of a representative is commercial, quoted per provider, and no official source publishes it, so this library holds no figure for it. None of the above is the per-kilogram fee: that one is on the rate page and in the calculator.
- Registration fee: read 2026-09-04 · no source we could read
- Scheme minimum: repak.ie ↗, read 2026-09-04 · official source
