What my companies RoHS declaration should say 2011/65/EU, 2015/863, or 2017/2102

[jemurphy]

I am trying to figure out what my companies RoHS declaration should say 2011/65/EU, 2015/863, or 2017/2102. Or does it say 2011/65/EU plus 2015/863 and 2017/2102?

Hi Jemurphy,

Good question because the RoHS Directive, Annex VI, page 174/108 has not been amended by 2015/863 or 2017/2102. I am interested to hear what others have to say, but I would include the two new directives.

I have until 2021 to comply, but are working on a plan now.

Best,
Quinn

I agree with Quinn, if you are compliant state both 2011/65/EU and the Amendment EU 2015/863. I have not looked into the 2017/2012, but my answer would be if compliant state everything because its compliance requirement when these come into full force.
