Transporting waste without an e-GAR

Portugal’s electronic waste transfer note identifies the movement between holder, carrier and recipient. Whether it is required depends on the operation and any applicable exemption.

What to check in your case

We compare vehicle registration, origin, destination, date and waste type with the note’s history. We distinguish a missing note from an input or acceptance error. A commercial delivery note serves a different purpose.

Documents for your defence

Full notice or decision, front and back, and evidence of the date of service.

  • e-GAR and SILiAmb issue, amendment and acceptance history
  • Weighbridge ticket, transport documents and evidence of any exemption
