The Ukrainian parliament registered on October 30, 2019, Law on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and Law on Batteries and Accumulators. Both drafts follow the respective EU directives and introduce EPR for the waste streams. The producers and importers must register themselves, provide reports for authorities, establish PROs, implement collection in the municipalities and meet recycling targets.
The expected enforcement date for both laws is January 1, 2021.
