Joining Tyval from abroad
for sellers without a French entity.
Tyval is an approved French eco-organism for the tyre (PNEU) stream, one of the operators producers can choose to meet their end-of-life tyre obligations in France.
Tyval organises the collection and recovery of used tyres and directs them to reuse, recycling or energy recovery. Producers adhere, declare the tyres they place on the French market, and pay an eco-contribution funding the collection and treatment network.
Any company placing tyres on the French market, whether established in France, elsewhere in the EU, or outside the EU, whether the tyres are sold on their own or fitted to vehicles. The trigger is the first placement on the French market, not the seller location.
- A Chinese tyre manufacturer comparing tyre eco-organisms for French compliance
- A US performance-tyre brand selling to French distributors
- An EU tyre producer without a French establishment supplying French garages
What we do for the Tyval stream specifically.
You remain the producer. Under the written mandate required by Article L. 541-10-9-1 of the French Environmental Code, we take charge of and answer for your registration, your identifier, your declarations, the exchanges with the eco-organisation and audits, and the archiving of your files. Your eco-contributions stay invoiced to you and paid by you directly to the eco-organisation. For tyres, we prepare and file the Tyval declarations. The choice between Aliapur, France Recyclage Pneumatiques and Tyval is contractual, not legal. We currently register clients with Citeo, Léko and Léko Pro, Ecosystem (electrical equipment, lamps, batteries), Twiice, Refashion, Ecomaison and Valobat. For the other approved eco-organisations, we confirm availability with your quote.

Frequently asked questions
- Who has to join Tyval?
- Any producer placing products covered by Tyres (PNEU) on the French market, whatever the country it is established in, with no minimum volume. The producer is the first company placing the goods on that market: for a distance sale to a French consumer, that is the seller, not the carrier and not the marketplace.
- Can I join Tyval without a French company?
- Not directly. A producer with no establishment in France must appoint a representative established in France, compulsory since 10 July 2026 under Article L. 541-10-9-1 of the French Environmental Code. For Tyval, we confirm availability with your quote.
- What does Tyval membership cost?
- Two separate amounts. The membership fee runs from EUR 0 to 450 a year depending on the stream. The eco-contribution depends on what you place on the market and follows Tyval's published schedule. Your eco-contributions stay invoiced to you and paid by you directly to the eco-organisation. We take no percentage and no margin on either of them.
- Is Tyval the only option?
- No. On Tyres (PNEU), Aliapur and France Recyclage Pneumatiques are also state-accredited. Joining any one of them satisfies the obligation, and the choice belongs to the producer. They differ on their published schedule, their declaration format and their eco-modulations, not on the legal cover they provide.
