PRESS RELEASE

New Trade Rules for End-of-Life Electrical and Electronic Materials

EDITED BY : 2MINS READ

Brussels, 8 July 2025 – for immediate release
The Bureau of International Recycling (BIR) is pleased to announce the release of the second edition of its
Business Digest, a dedicated membership resource offering practical guidance on complex regulatory
developments impacting the recycled materials industry.

This edition focuses on the new international trade rules for end-of-life electrical and electronic
materials, following the entry into force of the Basel Convention E-Waste Amendments in January 2025.
The Digest provides:
 A concise overview of the new rules and procedures
 Guidance on implementation across the Basel Convention, OECD, and EU legal systems
 A breakdown of the new trade codes and control mechanisms
 Practical case studies to illustrate shipment procedures under different regimes
“As regulatory frameworks evolve, it is crucial that our members are equipped with clear, practical tools
to manage change,” says BIR President Susie Burrage OBE. “This second edition of the Business Digest is
another milestone in our commitment to support members navigating increasingly complex international
trade rules.”
BIR Director General Arnaud Brunet adds: “I would like to thank BIR Trade & Environment Policy Officer
Federico Zanotti and the members of our EEEVB Committee for this initiative and their valuable input in
preparing this essential document. By making it available in the Members’ Area of our website, we ensure
secure access to exclusive information that facilitates business decisions across our global membership.”
The Business Digest, which is a Members Only publication, reflects BIR’s dedication to advocacy and
member services, providing real-time resources in a rapidly changing regulatory environment. As with all
issues in the series, this Business Digest is intended as a practical tool – not a legal document – to support
corporate decision.
