Deposit Return Systems Engine

Check the container. Know the deposit route before you sell.

Determine whether a beverage package falls inside a national deposit-return system, identify the operator, deposit value, product-registration and marking route, estimate deposit cash flow and prepare the evidence needed for EU market entry.

Core distinction

A refundable deposit is not the same thing as an EPR fee.

The engine separates deposit money, operator/producer fees, registration fees, EPR contributions and other regulatory charges. Deposit amounts collected through the supply chain are tracked as refundable system money; they are never represented as Beyoğlu Professional revenue.

Step 04

National operator onboarding, product/SKU registration, barcode approval and reporting prerequisites.

Step 05

Marking, barcode & artwork readiness

Check the national deposit mark, GTIN/EAN requirements and artwork implications before printing production packaging.

Marking requirements will appear here.

Do not print or sticker a national DRS mark until the relevant product/barcode is accepted where the national system requires prior registration. A deposit logo does not itself register the product.
Step 06

Deposit cash-flow & operator fee view

Separates refundable deposit flow from non-refundable producer/system fees.

Cash separation

Deposit money moves through the scheme; it is not sales revenue.

The figures below estimate gross deposits attached to in-scope units. Producer/operator fees are shown separately where the engine has a verified rate or user-entered tariff.

Deposit exposure represents the face value carried through the supply chain. Actual scheme settlement timing, clearing, credits, unredeemed deposits and operator invoices depend on national rules.
Step 07

DRS evidence file

Keep onboarding, product approval, artwork and settlement evidence together.

Evidence retention
Step 08

Export the DRS readiness pack

Generate a product-scope workbook and portable evidence record. These files do not register products or pay deposits.
