Cross border transport of waste: domiciliation and all the administrative services for foreign companies that transport waste.

0 commenti

With the Legislative Decree n. 205/2010 was introduced, for foreign companies who want to import or export waste to/from Italy, the obligation:
  • to register in the National Register of Environmental Operators (ANGA);
  • to open a secondary office in Italy.
To simplify as much as possible this last procedure, the ANGA’s register issued a circular that made equivalent to the opening of a secondary office the so-called domiciliation, with the ability to send and receive postal correspondance to and from that place.
This means that the company does not have to open a secondary office in Italy, with all the rental and management costs that involves a secondary office, but may simply elect a domiciliary, where they can receive all correspondence, and handle all the practices.

Natura Giuridica is a company that provides environmental consulting and administrative services to foreign companies that do import and export of waste into / from Italy. 
Warning: please note that major changes are underway in this area.
Update: please note that in the field of cross-border transport of waste in July 2016 the ANGA’s register with a new resolution has established new operational criteria for foreign companies that transport waste in/from Italy.
The new discipline:
  • provides that companies that wishing to enroll in the category 6 (“companies that perform exclusively cross-border transport of waste) must submit an application, exclusively via computer, at the regional or provincial territorial jurisdiction Section, in the event that they have secondary or elect domicile headquarters in Italy, or in the case elect domicile by e-mail address certified (Pec) to a regional or provincial section at the choice;
  • establishes the minimum provision of vehicles and personnel for the registration to category 6, which is identified on the basis of the overall payload of the vehicle in relation to the volume of waste as required by the registration classes;
  • introduces the requirement of financial standing before did not operational;
  • reiterates that - pending the decisions on the criteria for the evaluation of the professional requirements, the conditions for the engagement of technical manager and the necessary recognition of qualifications from another EU state - the post of technical director is hired by the legal representative;
  • sets a transitional provisions. In particular, companies that are already in possession of the registration receipt must submit the new application (in order to comply with the new provisions) by February 12, 2017, or within 120 days from the date of entry into force of the resolution, under penalty of removal from the register.
Update: for companies already registered in the register on 15 October 2017, the deadline for obtaining the adjustment was postponed to 30 September 2017 (Delibera n. 5 del 2 maggio 2017 contenente la proroga del termine previsto dall’articolo 5, comma 1, della deliberazione n. 3 del 13 luglio 2016).
