Encorp will launch a Brand Owner Portal on its website this April. With this new portal, once logged in, brand owners will only need to input their deposit-bearing beverage container sales in New Brunswick for any given reporting period – by container type – and the form will automatically calculate the appropriate deposits and CRFs to be remitted – and submit the report. All reporting must be done via the portal – we will not accept faxed or emailed submissions of forms printed/filled by hand.
In April, we will contact all organizations who have registered with Encorp for the new EPR Beverage Containers Program, offering username and login details and training on using this online reporting system.
It is important to note that this new portal must ONLY be used to report deposit-bearing beverage container sales that occur AFTER April 1. Reports will be due within 10 days of the end of each reporting period for the previous reporting period. For brand owners with a 12-month reporting schedule, the first report – for sales from April 1 to April 30, 2024 – to be filed using our new Brand Owner Portal will only be due in early May. Payments will be due within 30 days of the end of each reporting period (i.e., May 30, 2024, for April 2024 sales).
Please note that if your organization has been reporting sales and remitting beverage container deposits to us under the current Beverage Containers Program, you must continue to do so until the start of the new EPR Program using the same Beverage Container Deposit Remittance Forms (electronic and/or PDF versions) available on our website for deposits owed up to and including March 31, 2024.
