Requirements for Electrical & Electronic Products in Korea

Join us to learn about Korea’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, which includes electrical and electronic products and end of life vehicle waste management.

Korea is one of the most important markets for electrical & electronic (E&E) products. Like the European Union (EU), Korea has its own version of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive called 'K-RoHS'. K-RoHS, the 'Act on Resource Circulation of Electrical and Electronic Equipment and Vehicles' is a combined regulation including RoHS, waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and End of Life Vehicles (ELV) directives. Manufacturers or importers of E&E products and vehicles in Korea must follow the K-RoHS requirements.

Objectives

The objectives of the webinar are to briefly introduce the Korean E&E market and to provide information on the legal system of 'Act' and the enforcement decrees for K-RoHS. The EcoAS system, the control system of K-RoHS in Korea, will also be presented.

  • About the Korean E&E market
