Target group
The guidelines on transboundary waste shipments are mainly aimed at:
- Those who are to export or import waste
- Authorities such as Municipalities, County Administrative Boards, the Police, the Swedish Customs and the Public Prosecutor's Office
The information document is to be signed by the party arranging the shipment before the waste is shipped and by the recovery facility or laboratory after the waste has been received. More information is available in Article 18 of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006.
Digital support for filling out the information document (Annex VII) for green list waste/waste subject to the information requirement is provided through Nordic cooperation via the Nordic Council of Ministers. The e-service is available to assist you in filling in the necessary information, and finding and understanding the laws governing transboundary waste shipments.
A contract is required
The sender must sign a contract with the recipient of waste for recovery and be able to present it to the relevant supervisory authority.
