This is possible as long as the changes do not substantially alter the waste shipment. You can use the form on this page to submit a modification request to the ILT.

Submitting a modification request
The kennisgever (notifier) or gemachtigde (authorised representative) must request permission in advance and submit a written request to all authorities involved to modify the current decision (see EEC Regulation 1013/2006 EWSR Article 17).
You can only submit a request for:
- modifications that do not essentially change the original notification (see ‘Modifications you can request using the online form’ below)
- existing EWSR decisions (notification applications for which the ILT has already issued a positive decision).
- situations where the scheduled period for shipments has not yet expired.
You can only ship according to the modification when all authorities involved have approved the modification and have indicated that a new notification is not necessary.
Application form
To apply for a modification to an EVOA-beschikking (EWSR decision) issued by the ILT, use the Modifying a waste transport notification online form.
