Do you export electrical or electronic products to Singapore? Singapore RoHS may then apply, according to Order 2016, which came into force on June 1st, 2017. Order 2016 amends the Environmental Protection and Management Act of the Republic of Singapore and has given birth to the Singapore RoHS.
Also called SG-RoHS, Singapore RoHS bears a resemblance to the EU RoHS one:
Despite the links between the two regulations, we can find notable differences:
EU RoHS | SG-RoHS | |
Scope | Very broad: Most electrical and electronic equipment |
PC computers Flat-panel televisions Cell phones Air conditioners Washing machines Refrigerators |
Restricted Phthalates Substances | 4 phthalates: BBP, DBP, DEHP, and DIBP |
No restricted phthalates |
Label | CE marking |
No Marking |
Just like EU RoHS, Enviropass recommends you to build a robust technical file, based on the IEC 63000 standard.
If your company exports non-RoHS compliant EEE from Singapore, then it must specifically ask an authorization letter to the Singapore NEA.
