Sports and leisure goods: the French EPR line on Amazon
Direct answer: Sports and leisure goods have their own French scheme since 2022: bicycles’ accessories, fitness equipment, balls, rackets, camping gear, water sports items. Ecologic is the eco-organisation approved for it; the registration yields one identifier for this scheme, distinct from the toys and the DIY numbers.
What the category covers
Equipment for sport and outdoor leisure without a motor: fitness, racket sports, ball sports, camping, mountain, water sports, cycling accessories. Items with a motor or an electrical function also meet the electrical line.
The eco-organisation and the number
Approved by the French state for sports and leisure goods: Ecologic. The fee is calculated per unit or per kg, by product family; the tariff versions, their dates and the official documents are on the public register of FrenchEPR. After registration, one identifier (FRxxxxxx_xx) for this scheme, listed in the French public register — the line of the screen expects that one, not a number of another scheme.

What UIN France does for this line
Under a written mandate, REP·Pro registers your company with the eco-organisation of this scheme, obtains the identifier in your name, prepares and files the declarations from the volumes you give, and stands as the representative established in France. The eco-organisation invoices its own contributions; we pass them on without margin. This line alone is the Starter plan (€29 a month, 12-month plan); with other lines it counts towards Pro or Complete.
