Compliance Requirements Under EU RoHS
Compliance with the RoHS Directive is the responsibility of the company producing products that fall under its scope. A “producer” includes any person who manufactures and sells, resells, imports or exports electrical and electronic equipment into the EU on a professional basis. Producers must self-declare their compliance with the Directive and member states will carry out checks and surveillance on products to confirm compliance. If a product is found to be non-compliant with RoHS, the producer will be asked to show due diligence has been carried out. This necessitates supply chain communication with suppliers and subcontractors to ensure full compliance during the entire manufacturing process.
