Description

Other electrical and electronic waste: assemblies and printed circuit boards containing batteries, mercury switches, cathode-ray tube glass or other hazardous components.

Export Considerations

These contain hazardous components, so Basel permits, prior consent and authorised dismantlers are required. Waste electrical and electronic material is regulated: shipments need Basel Convention and national hazardous waste or e-waste permits, prior informed consent, correct classification (Annex VIII or IX), recycler authorisation at destination, battery and mercury segregation, and sealed, labelled packing; never ship as ordinary goods.
