LUCID registration numbers start with 'DE' followed by 13 figures.
Each registered producer is assigned a LUCID registration number, which can be found on the dashboard after logging into the LUCID Packaging Register.
You can also look for your registration number in the public register of producers on our website. Search the register for your company name. The search result will include your registration number.
