Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), the Directive for the Recycling of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. In order to properly dispose of these huge amounts of electrical and electronic waste, the EU
Waste, while recycling precious resources, in 2002 passed two directives that have a significant impact on electrical and electronic equipment products, namely WEEE (European Union Recycling Directive) and RoHS Directive (European Union's Recycling Directive).
Environmental Directive).
In 2016, the German environmental protection department issued a law against e-commerce, requiring Amazon to notify overseas e-commerce sellers selling on its platform to register electronic equipment for recycling, and after obtaining WEEE electronic equipment returns.
Before receiving the code, Amazon must order the merchant to stop selling. At present, Amazon implements a policy of forcible closure of companies selling cross-border e-commerce, and products that do not register the WEEE registration code will be forcibly removed from the shelves. Among all European countries, Germany has the strictest environmental protection requirements, so German WEEE must be done!
Scrap electrical and electronic equipment, "waste" is defined in detail in Directive 75/442/EEC, which is modified in Directive 91/156/EEC. Scrap is actually for WEEE
All categories of products in Annex I of the Directive, even if the product has not reached the end of its useful life, are considered waste as long as they are discarded by consumers.
From August 13, 2005, manufacturers of electrical and electronic equipment circulating in the EU market must be legally responsible for paying for the recycling of end-of-life products, and EU member states are obliged to
Develop its own recycling plan for electrical and electronic products, and establish relevant supporting recycling facilities, so that end users of electrical and electronic products can easily and freely dispose of scrapped equipment.

The scope of application of the WEEE Directive (the following electrical and electronic products): large household appliances, small household appliances, information technology and telecommunication equipment, user equipment, lighting equipment, electrical
and electronic tools (except large static industrial tools), toys, leisure and sports equipment, medical equipment (except all implanted and infected products), monitoring and control devices, automatic
vending machine. Table 2 (see next page) lists the product catalogues under each of the above categories of electrical and electronic equipment. This Directive will not contravene EU laws on safety and health requirements and EU laws on repealing
Applicable under the premise of special regulations on property management. Equipment, weapons, munitions and war materiel related to the protection of the vital security interests of EU member states are not subject to this Directive.
"Electrical and Electronic Equipment" (WEEE) refers to the categories listed in Table 2 and designed to operate with a voltage not exceeding 1000V for alternating current and 1500V for direct current, which is required for normal operation.
Devices that rely on currents or electromagnetic fields and devices that generate, transmit, and measure these currents and magnetic fields. "Electrical and Electronic Waste" (WEEE) means waste in accordance with EU Article 75/
Article 1(a) of Directive 442/EEC defines electronic or electrical equipment as waste, including all components, components and consumables of which the product is discarded as part of it.
WEEE is not registered, and it is easily blocked by Amazon and removed from the shelves. The most important thing is that on the premise that the merchant sells well, it is targeted by the competitor, and the competitor buys the product of the merchant. If the product is not printed with a trash can with a slash, or the product is not registered for recycling in Germany, the competitor will It will entrust a German lawyer to send a letter to Amazon, requesting to stop selling the company's products, and apply for court proceedings to destroy all the company's products on Amazon.
At this point the merchant not only lost all inventory, but also had to pay the attorney's letter and the cost of destroying the product, which could mean the company was essentially driven out of the German market.
