Hello.
Our biggest challenge is reporting packaging waste to FURS. The system is very simplified and uniform everywhere in the EU, except of course in Slovenia. In Austria, they have had the representative sample method validated by the ARE. Let me briefly explain this method. As we are a shop with a high turnover of products (both seasonal and permanent) and with a large number of products ourselves, it is impossible to keep records for every single product sold (weight for sales packaging - to 4 decimal places). For this reason, in Austria, companies, in cooperation with the State, have made a method that summarises the 200 most sold products in the previous year. The products are then broken down by group and by formula. This method is carried out once a year. Unfortunately, this system has not been validated in Slovenia and the institutions do not understand that it is impossible to keep such records with such a turnover, as we are talking about at least 70 000 products. Fortunately, we have not yet had an inspection, but I have been told by competing companies that an inspector comes, chooses a product and wants to have a product card (with all weights and dividers given) and a spreadsheet showing that it has been taken into account in reporting and also paid for. This topic has been open for several years and we cannot come to a common level. Let me stress that we are losing competitiveness because of such impossible claims. I do not understand why this cannot be regulated in the same way in Slovenia for large companies.
