What is BDO and to whom it applies

In practice, the phrase „BDO reports” implies several different obligations, and the biggest problem for businesses is that they try to treat it as one form for all. Meanwhile, the BDO system encompasses different types of reporting, two of which are the most important for companies: the annual report on waste generated and waste management and the annual report on products, packaging and the management of waste arising from them.
If you are wondering who has to register with BDO, the answer is that the obligation does not apply to every entrepreneur, but to those entities that either carry out waste management activities or market certain products and packaging.
The BDO register is the first contact with environmental obligations for many companies, but it is also one of the most common points on which businesses get lectured. The biggest problem is that many people still think of BDO only in the context of waste, whereas the obligation to register can also arise from commercial, import or packaging activities.
The most important thing to say right away is simple: the BDO number is not created like a login to the system. It is not a number created by the entrepreneur on his/her own, but a registration number assigned by the competent marshal of the province after entry in the BDO register. The official BDO knowledge base makes this clear.
Find out what BDO is, who is affected by the register entry and how to get started with the system without errors and stress.
One of the most common reasons for errors in BDO is not lack of knowledge about the obligation itself, but confusion about the design of the forms. The entrepreneur opens an application or report, sees a list of sections and tables and very often assumes that everything the system shows has to be completed. This is where the problem starts. The BDO's official instructions make it clear that the layout of the forms is layered: the divisions appear first and within them are tables to be completed according to the scope of the company's activities.
The worst reaction after the deadline for the KOBiZE report has passed is to keep postponing the topic. If the company should have entered the report into the National database for the previous year and the deadline of the end of February has already passed, the first rule is simple: the report still has to be submitted.
