Market Surveillance and Enforcement

The enforcement entry outlines the market-surveillance framework that EU member states must apply to ensure compliance with RoHS 2, including authority powers to inspect products, request documentation, and verify that electronic and electrical equipment does not contain prohibited hazardous substances above the set limits. It specifies procedures for non-compliance actions such as corrective measures, product withdrawals, and penalties, aiming to protect health and the environment while maintaining a level playing field for manufacturers.
