S: what the platform asks for French EPRhein marketplace sellers selling to France
Direct answer: What Shein asks: producer and EPR information for the French market, as its marketplace onboarding describes it. What it does not do: Shein's onboarding documents prevail; registration is national and per scheme. On the French side nothing varies by channel: a registration and a number for each scheme, held through the eco-organisation itself or through a representative that is established in France. It is you who determine which schemes concern your products.
What the platform asks, as it publishes it
Producer and EPR information for the French market, as its marketplace onboarding describes it. The platform's own seller documentation prevails over this guide, which reports its substance without quoting it at length; screens and wording change, the French registration does not.
What it does not do in your place
Shein's onboarding documents prevail; registration is national and per scheme.
The two paths
- You hold a French registration number for the scheme concerned: enter it where the platform asks; the number is attached to your company and the scheme, and the public register shows it.
- You do not: obtain one by registering with the eco-organisation of the scheme, or appoint a representative established in France to do it under written mandate (article L. 541-10-9-1 of the Code de l'environnement, applicable since 10 July 2026).
The schemes a Shein seller meets first
Packaging almost always; then electrical equipment, batteries, textiles, furniture and toys as the catalogue goes. The reference page gives the criteria.
If you need a representative established in France
FrenchEPR is written by REP·Pro, an authorised representative (mandataire REP) based in Béziers. Its self-service plan registers a producer with the eco-organisation of each scheme chosen, obtains the identifier and files the declarations: one scheme €29 a month on a 12-month plan, no setup fee; up to three schemes €59; up to six €89; beyond 6 categories, monthly billing only. Eco-contributions invoiced by the eco-organisations are separate. Published prices · Appoint a representative.
FAQ
Where does the number Shein asks for come from?
From the producer's registration with an eco-organisation approved for the scheme: ADEME then issues the identifier (FRxxxxxx_xx) and records it in the public register, where the platform can read it.
Does Shein declare or pay for me?
Shein's onboarding documents prevail; registration is national and per scheme.
What are the two paths?
Either the French number for the scheme is already yours and goes where the platform asks for it, or it still has to be obtained, through your own registration or through a representative that is established in France and acts under written mandate.
