Textile EPR in Finland
Formal legislative project
Broad research: 6 Oct 2026. Source review coverage is stated below.
The project URL was attempted but the government service returned a temporary outage page. Limit: No 26 October country review date applied; current project status and documents could not be revalidated.
Organisations & financing route
No authorised operating textile PRO verified
Constitution & legal approval
Authorised operating textile scheme not verified in the reviewed source pack
Implementation timing
National date not verified; EU establishment deadline 17 April 2028
Next evidence trigger
Final national law, register, scheme authorisation and tariff
Competent authority
Ministry of the Environment; Finnish Supervisory Agency (Lupa- ja valvontavirasto, LVV) for mainland producer responsibility from 1 January 2026; Åland requires separate jurisdictional checking.
Legal basis
National legislative project YM006:00/2026 prepares textile EPR. Current producer-responsibility guidance must be read with the 2026 administrative reorganisation.
Product scope
Final national textile EPR scope not verified. Use the EU Annex IVc map in section 2 for readiness; apply the final national annex before calculating liability.
Fees & financial basis
No operative national textile tariff verified. Treat the value as unresolved; obtain a dated scheme tariff once the national route is established.
Eco-modulation
No operative national textile schedule verified. Future criteria depend on national implementation; a certificate alone does not establish a discount.
Targets & denominators
No country-specific numerical textile EPR quota verified in the source pack. Separate collection duties continue; the revised EU directive does not set one uniform numerical textile quota.
Registration & reporting
Prepare Finnish POM mass and product codes; no textile EPR return deadline verified. Existing producer streams should be handled through current LVV instructions. Check Åland separately rather than applying mainland registration automatically.
Organisations & approval status
No authorised operating textile PRO verified in the source pack. Collectors, charities and PROs for other streams are separate roles.
Next milestones
Follow YM006:00/2026 consultation and passage, implementing rules, LVV register and collective-system approvals. Obtain explicit mainland/Åland coverage for sales and take-back contracts.
Practical risks & controls
Risk: relying on obsolete authority details or a municipal collection operator as the compliance route. Mitigation: verify LVV filing instructions, mainland versus Åland coverage, and stream-specific approval.

A constituted organisation, a pilot and an authorised compulsory system have different legal effects. Unresolved scope, approval, tariff and filing questions remain visible in this dossier. Source-page reopening is not a complete current licence audit.
