摘要：The full name of the EU plastic tax is “EU Own Resource on unrecycled plastics packaging waste”. It does not impose a tax on virgin plastics, nor does it impose a tax on the packaging industry. It refers to the fee paid for garbage which is expected to take effect in January 2021 and will have an impact on the budgets of EU member states. The goal of this regulation is to encourage EU member states to invest in plastic recycling infrastructure. Otherwise, the relevant costs will be calculated based on the weight of unrecycled packaging. From January 1, 2021, single-use plastic packaging will be charged at 0.8 per kilogram. According to the standards, the EU can also charge 5 billion to 8 billion euros tax per year.

Although the levy of the plastic packaging tax has the meaning of "increasing revenue and reducing expenditure" to cope with the current economic impact, the EU has indeed been very concerned about plastic pollution in recent years.
Dear manufacturers and suppliers, maybe you don't feel the power of the plastic tax now, but you will feel it in half a year. When your exported goods will be taxed due to the implementation of the plastic tax, your customers will ask you to propose a new packaging plan to avoid the new plastic tax, otherwise they may require your products to be reduced in price to deduct the tax. As long as we change the packaging method, do not use plastic for packaging, and use paper materials for packaging, there will be no problem of tax increase, so that our products will be more competitive.
It is very difficult for a factory to make changes from a normal packaging, because it takes a lot of time to test the packaging, so you have to plan in advance. Now there is still some time, WiAir Packaging is waiting for your inquiry, looking forward to making a packaging plan which suits you, hoping to help you avoid plastic taxes.
