With the improvement of environmental awareness, the Temu platform calls on sellers to submit qualification information such as the German and French EPR registration numbers in a timely manner through environmental policy requirements such as the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) to ensure the compliance of the products and avoid affecting sales on the site due to failure to file. Below are the detailed qualification submission steps. Sellers must pay attention and follow the instructions.
What is the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) qualification?
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is an environmental policy requirement of the European Union based on the “polluter pays” principle. The policy requires producers to be responsible for reducing the impact of products on the environment throughout their life cycle, from the production and design of the products to the management and disposal of waste. The main purpose is to improve environmental quality by reducing the impact of products such as product packaging and packaging waste, electronic products, and batteries on the environment.
Temu requires country/region qualification types:
On the Temu platform, sellers need to submit relevant qualification information such as the German and French EPR registration numbers. This is a requirement put forward by the platform to ensure that the products comply with environmental policy requirements, and it is also a necessary measure for sellers to expand the market.

7. Submit for review.
After confirming that the filling is correct, click the Submit for Review button. It should be noted that the seller will not be able to modify the review items before the qualification filing review process is completed, so be sure to check the accuracy of the information before submission.
Why submit the EPR registration number?
Submitting the EPR registration number is not only a compliance with environmental protection policies, but also opens up a wider market for sellers to sell goods on the Temu platform. This measure meets the platform’s requirements for environmental protection responsibilities, and also enhances the credibility of sellers’ goods in the market and increases consumers’ trust in the goods.
As environmental protection policies are gradually strengthened, as a seller, you must always pay attention to the platform’s policy updates, actively respond to and implement relevant requirements. Submitting the EPR registration number is not only an obligation, but also to occupy a favorable position in the market where environmental awareness is gradually increasing. By complying with policy regulations, you can not only follow the market trend, but also help to increase the exposure and sales of goods on the platform. Therefore, sellers must follow the platform’s instructions and submit the EPR registration number in a timely manner.
