Procedure details

According to Section 54 (1) of the Closed Substance Cycle Waste Management Act (KrWG), collectors, carriers, traders and brokers of hazardous waste require a permit. The permit must be issued if the requirements are met.

Various legal provisions stipulate that no permit is required in certain cases. These case constellations and underlying legal provisions are listed in Section 4.2 of Annex 2 of the Notification and Permit Ordinance - AbfAEV - (Art. 1 of the Ordinance of 5.12.2013, Federal Law Gazette I p. 4043) (see under "Legal bases").

The license is granted if the following requirements are met:

  • The applicant (in the case of legal entities and associations of persons, the person authorized by law, articles of association or bylaws to represent or manage the company) and the persons responsible for the management and supervision of the company must be reliable.
  • The applicant, insofar as he is responsible for the management of the establishment, and the persons responsible for the management and supervision of the establishment and the other personnel must have the necessary technical and specialist knowledge for their activities.

  • Business registration
    (not applicable if there is no obligation to do so)
  • Extract from the commercial register, register of associations or register of cooperatives
    (not applicable if no registration has been made)
  • Proof of business liability insurance and environmental liability insurance related to the respective activity

  • Proof of motor vehicle liability insurance
    (only for collectors and transporters of waste, insofar as they intend to transport waste on public roads)
  • Company-related information from the central business register (document type 9)
    only for applicants which are legal persons or associations of persons
  • personal information from the central business register (document type 9)
    => for persons who are the applicant or, in the case of a legal person or association of persons as applicant, legally represent the applicant, as well as for the persons designated by the applicant who are responsible for the management and supervision of the establishment.
  • Certificate of good conduct (document type OG)
    => for persons who are the applicant or, in the case of a legal person or association of persons as applicant, legally represent the applicant, as well as for the persons designated by the applicant who are responsible for the management and supervision of the establishment.

  • Proof of specialist knowledge in accordance with § 5 Para. 1 Sentence 1 of the Ordinance on Notification and Licensing (in particular confirmation of participation in an officially recognised specialist knowledge course).
    => for the persons designated by the applicant as responsible for the management and supervision of the establishment; in this context, the applicant may also designate himself as such a person
  • Foreign certificates from another EU member state or from another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area
    shall be deemed to be equivalent to the aforementioned German certificates if the foreign certificates show that the applicant fulfils the licensing requirements or the essentially comparable requirements of the issuing State on the basis of their objective.

Submit the application together with the required documents to the competent authority.
