  • 2019-03-15

The Ministry of Environment of South Korea plans to expand the control of toxic substances in electronic products. The adjustment includes increasing the types of controlled products from the original 26 to 49; adding 4 new plasticizer tests, increasing the number of toxic substance tests from the original 5 9 items; and penalties will be adjusted for those who fail to meet the standards. The amendment to control plasticizers is expected to be passed on July 22, 2019, and the control of additional product types is expected to be implemented on January 1, 2020. Official implementation still needs to wait until the presidential level "Electronic Products and Vehicle Resource Recycling Act" is passed. . The 23 new product control types include: dehumidifiers, toasters, electric kettles, hair dryers, and video game consoles. The four new plasticizer tests include: diester phthalate (DEHP), butylphenyl phthalate (BBP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diisophthalate The penalties for butyl ester (DIBP) violations have also been adjusted, including increasing the amount of fines based on the number of previous violations, and halving the fines for businesses that voluntarily disclose the first violation. The fine for the first violation is 20 million won (US$$17,780), the second violation is 25 million won (US$$22,220), and the third violation is 30 million won (US$$26,670) ), all original fines were 30 million won. The Ministry of Environment of South Korea stated that this revision is based on suggestions from the industry and the EU RoHS2 Directive (Directive 2015/862/EU).
