Declaration of industrial oils placed on the market

• The objective of the ITS for manufacturers is to register the industrial oils placed on the market subject to Royal Decree 679/2006.
• Our member companies declare, on a monthly basis, through the ITS, the amount of industrial oil they have placed on the domestic market, disaggregating the data by type of oil (industrial, automotive and others), by origin (domestic manufacture or import/intracommunity transaction) and destination autonomous community. Also, data is provided on oils not subject to treatment by SIGAUS, such as oil destined for the manufacture of electrical and electronic devices and vehicles.
• This statement is used to calculate the amounts that the member company is invoiced in the concept of participation in the integrated management system, thus fulfilling their obligations as a manufacturer.

Procedure for refunding the economic contribution due to export.

For the industrial oils that, after being initially placed on the domestic market, are issued abroad (exports or intracommunity sales), a refund procedure is established (with documentary justification) for the companies that pay their contribution to SIGAUS for the purchase of industrial oils in Spain for companies adhered to the IMS that manufacture lubricants.

This procedure, which is not derived from a legal requirement, implies a significant economic and financial effort for SIGAUS that reduces costs for the export activity, positively affecting the competitiveness of Spanish companies abroad.
