Romania

Transposition of the WEEE Directive was completed in Romania at the end of 2005 through five Government Decisions and Ministerial Orders. Under these Regulations, for equipment that you buy from TE after January 1st 2007, TE is required to provide arrangements for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of WEEE that your new purchase replaces, on a one-for-one, like-for-like basis. The old equipment that your new purchase fromTE replaces is referred to as Historic WEEE.

Under these Regulations, TE is also required to provide arrangements for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of any new electrical and electronic equipment that you buy from the dealer after January 1st 2007, when that new equipment eventually becomes waste. This is referred to as New WEEE.
