Recycling Europe asks to postpone the next DIWASS phase.
Published ; letter dated . Sources checked for this update only.
Recycling Europe reports technical problems delaying or blocking notified shipments. It requests postponing mandatory digitalisation of non-hazardous waste shipments until at least 1 July 2027 and reconsidering the two-working-day advance submission requirement.
The Commission's published Annex VII transition guidance still runs through 31 December 2026. Keep 1 January 2027 in the cutover plan. The industry request does not authorise a paper fallback, suspend deadlines or change an existing consent.

Operational planning
Record a failed operation, its evidence, owner and helpdesk reference; review affected planned shipments. An unresolved submission outcome needs reconciliation before retry. A technical incident does not itself establish a legal breach or permission to depart.
This source check is not a live DIWASS health check or a legal review of every page. WasteBridge's regulatory adapter and automated incident workflow remain planned.
