If you declared more than 10,000 batteries for a given year via the annual declaration, you will be automatically transferred to monthly statements starting the year after. The reason being that Bebat has instituted the requirement that annual declarations are permitted only for participants who put a maximum of 10,000 batteries per year on the Belgian market. Further information regarding the monthly declarations is available in the “How do I prepare my monthly declarations and how do I submit them"? question.
