I. Basic Definitions‌

ROHSCertification‌It is a mandatory directive by the European Union concerning the restriction of the use of hazardous substances in electronic and electrical products, officially titled "Directive on the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment."Restriction of Hazardous Substances）‌。
Core Objective‌Reduce lead content in electronic products:PbMercuryHg)、 CadmiumCd)、Hexavalent ChromiumCr⁶⁺Harmful substances such as those listed pose risks to both the environment and human health, promoting green manufacturing.‌。

II. Certification Process‌
Choose a Certification Body‌
Select an EU-approved third-party testing facility (such as)TUV、ULPending confirmation from the collaborating laboratory), ensure its suitabilityROHSFull Scope Testing Qualification‌。
Submit application and prepare materials‌
Fill out the application form and provide product specifications, circuit diagrams, and material lists.BOMSupplier and parts supplier information‌。
The company must provide business license and other qualification documents.‌。
Sample Splitting and Dispatch‌
Break down products into single material components (such as plastic shells, metal parts, circuit boards, etc.), ensuring that all parts potentially containing restricted substances are covered.‌。
Components with batteries and motors require separate testing.‌。
Testing and Rectification‌
Testing Method‌：XRFScanning preliminary screening, chemical analysis (such as)GC-MS、ICP-OESDetermine harmful substance content‌。
Test Cycle‌Standard5-71 business day, retest required after correction‌。
Obtain Reports and Labels‌
After passing the testROHSCompliance report, products can be marked with eco-labels (such as eco-use period, harmful substance content, etc.)‌。

III. Core Requirements of Instructions‌
Restricted Materials and Quantities Limit‌：
Hazardous Materials    Limited Edition (Uniform Material)
LeadPbMercuryHgHexavalent ChromiumCr⁶⁺PBDEs (Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers)PBBPBBs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers)PBDE）    ≤0.1%
CadmiumCd）    ≤0.01%
Newly added4ItemDEHP、BBP、DBP、DIBP）    ≤0.1%（2019Year7Monthly effective (as of the current month)‌。

Section 4: Applicable Product Range‌
Electrical and Electronic Equipment‌Including household appliances,ITEquipment, communication equipment, lighting equipment, electrical tools, etc.‌。
Exception Products‌Medical equipment, surveillance equipment (partial exemptions), and aerospace equipment, etc.‌。

V. Certification Types and Responsibilities‌
Mandatory and Self-Declaration‌：
ROHSFor EU market access‌Mandatory directive‌The company must undergo third-party testing or self-declaration to demonstrate compliance.‌。
High-risk products (such as equipment containing complex materials) require third-party inspection reports.‌。
Principal Party of Responsibility‌Manufacturers, importers, or authorized representatives must ensure that the product complies with all regulations throughout its entire lifecycle.ROHSRequirements‌。

Section 6: Importance and Consequences of Non-compliance‌
Market Access‌No content provided.ROHSProducts with non-compliant certificates are unable to enter the EU market or markets that recognize this standard.‌。
Legal Risks‌Violation may lead to product deactivation, fines, or legal action.‌。
Brand Image‌Certification enhances consumer trust and the company's environmental reputation.‌。
Environmental Responsibility‌Promote green supply chain management to reduce waste pollution‌。

Section 7: Cautionary Notes‌
Valid Period‌：ROHSTest reports generally do not have a fixed expiration date, but retesting is required upon design changes or regulatory updates.‌。
Material Split‌Ensure all components meet the limited quantity requirements to avoid overall non-compliance due to a single material exceeding standards.‌。
Supply Chain Management‌The supplier is required to provide raw materials.ROHSCompliance Certificate, Risk Reduction‌。

ThroughROHSCertification allows businesses to effectively circumvent trade barriers, fulfill environmental responsibilities, and enhance their competitiveness in the international market.‌。
