What penalties apply for missing or incorrect Lucid registration?

The fines are substantial. If you are not registered at all you face a fine of up to €100,000. If you are registered but not participating in the dual system (meaning you do not pay packaging fees) you can face a fine of up to €200,000 — plus an immediate sales ban for your products. This means your items can no longer be sold. For incorrect or missing data reporting (volume reporting) fines of up to €10,000 still apply. ZSVR conducted over 20,000 enforcement proceedings in 2024, showing the authority actively monitors. Online marketplaces also check their sellers' registration themselves, meaning you risk consequences there too (account suspension).
