Waste Transport in Austria: EDM Registration and the Rail Obligation
A waste carrier, including a foreign one and in transit only, must register in the Austrian EDM system before starting the activity (§ 21 AWG). From 2026, shipments over 10 t on a route of more than 100 km in Austria must, as a rule, travel by rail. We also explain the waste catalogue, penalties, A12 and IG-L.
