Attention: Batteries Regulation takes effect today

As of today – 18 August 2025 – further comprehensive obligations apply as part of the gradual entry into force of the EU Batteries Regulation (EU) 2023/1542. Here you will find FAQs on the EU Batteries Regulation for distributors, producers and importers who sell batteries or devices containing batteries in one or more EU countries.

Professional end users must register

Electrical equipment imported for own use in Finland is subject to extended producer responsibility. For WEEE in Belgium, the rule is that professional end users are obliged to register, and importers can only take-over this responsibility voluntarily.

Hungary registration for textiles and furniture

The registration obligation has been in force since 1st July 2023. In order to register as producer, non-Hungarian companies are required to appoint an Authorised Representative in Hungary.
