Bales of waste paper

November 4, 2021 //  by Nancy Isarin

The rules and procedures for the export of non-hazardous, or the so-called green-listed waste from the EU to non-OECD coutnries, is laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1418/2007. This Regulation has now been updated.

Regulation (EU) 2021/1840 which was published on 21 October 2021 in the EU’s Official Journal is the latest update of Regulation (EU) No 1418/2007. The update process took place over the last 2 years in the form that the European Commission sent written requests to the country’s governments, seeking confirmation in writing what waste may be exported from the EU and which procedure should be applicable. Regulation (EU) 2021/1840 is a summary of all confirmations received. The regulation will come into effect as of 10 November 2021.

Link to Regulation 2021/1840.
