Finland: Packaging EPR fees
Rinki grades every material by recyclability class, so the same plastic packaging can cost 70% more if it's multi-material rather than mono-plastic.
Finland publishes a statutory packaging EPR tariff through Rinki / Suomen Pakkaustuottajat (SPT). Below: the core materials we use for cross-country comparison, the transcribed published rows (9), and the official source last checked on 09/07/2026.

How we verify this page
Core rates and detail rows are transcribed from the official document or tariff page at rinkiin.fi. We record a verification date (09/07/2026) and re-check when the source hash changes. Soft-scraped scheme hints stay labelled until someone confirms them against a primary document.
