Distributors

Finally, distributors also face new requirements under the RoHS recast. First, distributors of EEEs must verify that products have CE marking, and that manufacturers and importers of those products are in compliance with the RoHS directive.

Distributors also must take all steps necessary to address suspected Article 4 nonconformance and notify manufacturers, importers and market surveillance authorities as soon as possible; distributors are responsible for taking corrective actions in cases where EEEs they distribute have fallen into nonconformance.
