Context:
The European Union is currently developing a new European waste shipment registration system called DIWASS.
This system aims to modernize and harmonize the management of waste shipments between Member States, thereby facilitating cross-border compliance for carriers, authorities, and other stakeholders.
DIWASS (Digital Waste Shipment System) will provide a centralized digital platform for the registration, tracking, and exchange of information on waste shipments throughout the EU.
It is being developed to ensure that all waste shipment operations comply with European regulations, while offering a more efficient and standardized approach than the current fragmented national systems.
The technical requirements for DIWASS were laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1290, adopted on July 2, 2025.
This regulation follows lengthy consultations within the Waste Committee, which unanimously supported it.
Practically:
From 21 May 2026 , all cross-border shipments of waste falling under Annex VII must be declared digitally in DIWASS, the new European system.
At UBIDATA, we are already preparing the full integration with DIWASS to guarantee immediate compliance, smooth data transmission and a simple experience for your teams.
Our goal: to ensure a smooth transition to this fully digital European framework.
DIWASS is arriving.
Your compliance too!
Who is affected?
DIWASS impacts all actors involved in waste streams:
-
waste transporters
-
collectors and logistics operators
-
traders and brokers
-
producers and recipients
-
companies active in cross-border trade
In other words: if you transport or manage waste beyond a simple local framework, DIWASS concerns you directly.
What exactly is changing?
The transition to digital involves much more than a simple change of medium:
-
The gradual end of paper documents
-
increased requirements for data quality and consistency
-
easier controls for the authorities
-
interconnection between national and European systems
For businesses, the real challenge is operational:
❌ Increase the number of manual entries
❌ juggling between platforms
❌ risk of non-conformities
DIWASS imposes a rigorous structuring of data , directly linked to your transport operations.
The ubidata approach: DIWASS integrated into your processes
At Ubidata, we support players in the transport and waste management sectors in achieving European digital compliance , going far beyond simple regulatory encoding.
Our added value:
-
integrating DIWASS into your actual operational workflows
-
reuse of your existing transport data
-
consistency between national systems (OVAM, Walloon authorities, etc.) and the European framework
-
automation and reliability of declarations
-
reducing the administrative burden for your teams
DIWASS should not become an isolated tool, but an integrated component of your IT ecosystem .
