Producers/initial distributors have to submit all the information about packaging subject to system participation that they provided to the Zentrale Stelle Verpackungsregister (Central Agency Packaging Register – ZSVR) without delay. These are:  

• registration number; 
• material type and mass of the participating packaging; 
• name of the system in which the packaging participates;  
• period of system participation. 

A producer is required to enter into an agreement with a system ('participate in a system') regarding the packaging mass subject to system participation that the producer is planning to place on the German market. At the same time, the exact volumes that the producer reported to the system also need to be submitted to the ZSVR, by entering the information into the LUCID Packaging Register.
