Get RoHS certification in India for your electrical and electronic products.
As environmental regulations tighten worldwide, RoHS certification in India has become a critical requirement for manufacturers of electrical and electronic equipment. Whether you are exporting to the European Union or complying with India’s E-Waste Management Rules, RoHS compliance ensures your products are free from restricted hazardous substances and safe for both consumers and the environment.
In this blog, we’ll explore what RoHS certification is, why it matters, how to get certified in India, and the benefits it offers your business.
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) is a directive initially adopted by the European Union (Directive 2011/65/EU), which restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). The key restricted substances include:
Lead (Pb)
Mercury (Hg)
Cadmium (Cd)
Hexavalent Chromium (Cr6+)
Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
And four phthalates added under RoHS 3
RoHS-compliant products must not exceed the allowed concentration levels of these substances in any homogenous material within the device.
In India, RoHS compliance is mandated under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, regulated by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC). These rules require manufacturers and importers of electronic goods to ensure that their products meet RoHS limits.
Mandatory for export to EU and global markets
Required for compliance under Indian E-Waste Management Rules
Ensures consumer and environmental safety
Boosts brand reputation and credibility
Avoids penalties and customs delays
If your business deals with electrical panels, home appliances, circuit boards, lighting products, cables, or medical devices — RoHS certification is essential.
RoHS applies to all manufacturers, importers, and sellers of:
Electrical & electronic equipment
IT and telecom devices
Consumer electronics
Industrial control panels
Batteries, cables, connectors, and components
Even startups and SMEs manufacturing PCB assemblies or importing finished electronics must demonstrate compliance when supplying to RoHS-regulated markets.
