Ukraine RoHS (UkrSEPRO / Technical Regulation)
Definition
Ukraine has implemented RoHS-equivalent requirements through its Technical Regulation on Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment, adopted to align with EU RoHS as part of Ukraine’s EU Association Agreement obligations. The regulation restricts the same substances as EU RoHS 1 (Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr⁶⁺, PBBs, PBDEs) at equivalent concentration limits, with a product certification and conformity marking system (previously UkrSEPRO). Ukraine’s ongoing EU integration process under the Association Agreement is progressing towards further harmonisation with EU product regulations, including RoHS 2.

Practical Explanation (Compliance Context)
Manufacturers exporting EEE to Ukraine must comply with the Ukrainian RoHS technical regulation. The ongoing war and Ukrainian regulatory reforms mean that certification and market access requirements have been evolving. Manufacturers should verify current requirements with Ukrainian certification bodies or legal advisors. EU RoHS compliance documentation provides a strong basis for Ukrainian conformity assessment, but local certification may be required.
