A declaration calendar,
tied to evidence rather than estimates.
We help the member select an eligible procedure, reconcile packaging placed on the Italian market and prepare authorised filings. The member approves the data and pays each CONAI invoice directly.

Timing depends on document completeness and independent registry and scheme review
The outcome
A reconciled, versioned CONAI declaration file
- Procedure, periodicity and eligibility decision recorded
- Units, weights, materials, fasce and corrections reconciled
- Member approvals, filing receipts, invoices and direct payments retained
CONAI controls filing acceptance, invoicing and consortium records
Thresholds change periodicity; they are not blanket exemptions
The ordinary and simplified import procedures have different evidence and eligibility rules. The ordinary €200 test is conditional per material and period, while simplified procedures use a separate €300 total test. Ordinary statistical reporting can remain from 10 tonnes, and the quarterly first-year rule is limited to a newly incorporated company starting activity during the year.

Why the recurring file needs controls
The cheapest method is selected automatically
A-valore, per-tara and turnover forfait routes have their own conditions; the procedure must fit the member and available evidence.
The incorporation and activity-start facts are missing
A newly incorporated company starting activity during the year has a specific quarterly rule. Do not copy that rule to every existing foreign company joining CONAI.
A correction overwrites the original
Every filed version, reason for change, invoice and receipt remains in the evidence chain.
Included in the written scope.
- Procedure and periodicity review
- Structured packaging-data template
- Material, fascia, weight and rate-version reconciliation
- Conditional exemption and first-year control checklist
- Member approval and authorised filing pack
- Receipt, invoice, payment and correction archive
Four controlled steps.

Frequently asked
Does every CONAI member file annually?
Not necessarily. Periodicity depends on procedure and contribution. The special first-year quarterly rule applies to a newly incorporated company starting activity during the year, not automatically to every existing foreign company that joins.
Is CAC automatically zero below €200?
No. The ordinary threshold is tested per material and reviewed annually; statistical reporting can remain from 10 tonnes. Simplified procedures use a separate €300 total threshold, and the special quarterly rule is limited to a newly incorporated company starting activity during the year.
Who approves and pays?
The member approves its data and remains the CAC debtor. CONAI invoices the member, which pays CONAI directly.
Can historic omissions be included in normal maintenance?
No. Historic regularisation is scoped separately. Autodenuncia relief only applies when its exact timing, 30-day declaration and invoice-payment conditions are met; interest remains due.
