Initial stocks

If you have initial stock during the settlement period, you must complete the following fields:

1.1. Fields related to “seat data”:

Seat number: The number in this field must be consecutive during the settlement period to which it refers. The first numbers should correspond to the initial stock of the settlement period. This field allows the identification of the seat.

Concept: You must fill in this field with the number “1”. If you had started your activity before the tax came into force, the initial stocks of the first settlement period are those manufactured in 2022 that you store in your establishment as of January 1, 2023. For the purposes of calculating stocks, this concept has a positive sign.

Product key: You must fill in this field with the key of the accounted product:

• Key “a” if they are non-reusable containers that contain plastic.

• Key “b” if they are semi-finished plastic products intended to obtain non-reusable containers containing plastic.

• Key “c” if they are products containing plastic intended to allow the closure, marketing or presentation of non-reusable containers.

You can count the products together, using the same key, when the rest of the fields to be counted are also the same. Otherwise, you will have to account for them separately.

Product description: You must complete this field with a brief description of the product that allows its identification. As an example:

• If the product is identified with the code “a”, you can describe it as primary packaging, secondary packaging or tertiary packaging.

• If the product is identified with the code “b”, you can describe it as a thermoplastic preform or sheet.

• If the product is identified with the code “c”, you can describe it as a cap or lid. Its content is free with the only limitation that the description you use must be the same for all products with identical characteristics.

Date: You must complete this field with the expression of the day, month and year corresponding to the recorded event. The accounting date must be included within the settlement period to which the accounting refers.

Justification: You must complete this field with the number or reference corresponding to the proof of the recorded event. For these purposes, any type of proof is accepted.

Kilograms: This field must be filled in with the quantity of plastic contained in the products counted. The quantity must be expressed in kilograms with three decimal places, rounded down if the fourth decimal place is less than 5, or rounded up otherwise. This amount will be counted without a sign.

Kilograms not recycled: This field must be filled in with the amount of non-recycled plastic contained in the kilograms counted. The quantity must be expressed in kilograms with three decimal places, rounded down if the fourth decimal place is less than 5, or rounded up otherwise. If you do not have the legally required supporting documents, all the counted kilograms must be considered as non-recycled. This amount will be counted without a sign.

Tax Regime: You do not need to fill in this field.

Observations: This field is free to fill out.
