EU: Method of Calculation in the Member States of the Financial Guarantee and Equivalent Insurance pursuant to Art.6 of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 on shipments of waste (2016)

A compilation of methods used in EU Member States was published in 2016. The calculation methods are formulas based mainly on the tonnage of waste shipped by the cost per tonne for 90 days’ storage, transport and treatment. Other factors that may be incorporated include distance, number of active shipments, administration and contingency. Some rates to be used in the calculations are specified or given as guidance, minimums are also set and one State specifies an absolute amount as a starting point.
