PackUK Issue Updated pEPR Notices of Liability & Provide 1 April Data Reminder

On Monday 23 March PackUK stated it will issue updated Notices of Liability (NoLs) on 26 March for the 2025-26 assessment year to producers under pEPR who exceed the recalculation materiality threshold following data resubmissions.

These updated invoices reflect approved data changes whilst the initial October 2025 base fee rates will remain unchanged due to the government covering a funding shortfall. There is a slight reduction in administrative costs and producers whose obligation has changed by less than £25 will not receive a revised NoL.

NoLs will be delivered through the Report Packaging Data (RPD) portal, with notifications sent to the primary contact listed on each producer’s account. Any required changes to the primary contact must be made by logging into the RPD system and resubmitting registration details.

The update on 23 March can be viewed here and guidance on NoL’s can be here. Step-by-step videos explaining NoL’s and paying the fee can also be viewed to help make pEPR payments.

PackUK reminds producers and compliance schemes to submit their H2 packaging data by 1 April 2026. This data will be used to determine obligations for the 2026–27 assessment year, with the first NoLs for that year expected to be issued by early July following regulator verification.

For any enquiries related to NoLs or payment, producers can contact PackUK customer support at 0300 060 0002 or EPRCustomerService@defra.gov.uk.
