Biocides BPR Fees SMEs Small and Medium Enterprises Inflation


All fees under the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR, Regulation (EU) No 528/2012) have increased by 19.5% to reflect inflation, following Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1490.

The revised fee schedule entered into force on 14 August 2025 and applies to a broad range of procedures, including applications for active substance approval, biocidal product authorisation (single products and families), renewals, amendments, technical equivalence assessments and annual fees.

 

Impact on Companies

The increase affects all companies placing biocidal products on the EU market. While SME reductions remain available, the inflation-linked adjustment represents a significant rise in regulatory costs, especially for businesses planning new submissions or renewals in 2025.
