RoHS Compliance and Certification Support in India
Show buyers that your electrical and electronic products keep restricted hazardous substances within the legal limits, backed by test evidence and a clear technical file.

RoHS is about what is in your product, so compliance depends on your materials, your suppliers and your test evidence.

What is RoHS?
RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances. The EU RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) restricts ten substances in electrical and electronic equipment: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB and PBDE flame retardants, and four phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP and DIBP). The usual limit is 0.1% by weight in each homogeneous material, and 0.01% for cadmium.
India has its own RoHS-style requirements under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, which apply to listed categories of electrical and electronic equipment. Many Indian manufacturers also need EU RoHS compliance to export.
We help you work out which RoHS requirements apply to your products, review your bill of materials and supplier declarations, arrange testing, and build the technical documentation you need.
What RoHS Compliance Does and Doesn't Mean
Mostly a manufacturer's declaration
Under EU RoHS, the manufacturer declares conformity and keeps a technical file. It is not an approval stamped by a third party.
Test reports support the claim
Lab test reports and supplier declarations are the evidence. We help you collect and organise it.
Linked to CE marking
For many products, RoHS is one of the requirements behind the CE mark. See our CE page.
Benefits of RoHS Compliance
Market access
Meet requirements for EU exports and for Indian buyers who ask for it.
Fewer rejections
Avoid shipments and tenders failing on compliance paperwork.
Supply chain control
Know what is in your components and who supplies them.
Safer products
Reduce hazardous substances in products and in e-waste.
Audit-ready records
Keep a technical file that stands up to customer and market checks.
Customer confidence
Show buyers you manage substance risks in a documented way.

Ongoing control
Procedures to keep compliance when parts or suppliers change.
Be Careful with Instant RoHS Certificates
A RoHS “certificate” with no test evidence behind it will not stand up to a customer or market check. Before choosing a provider, check that:
- Your materials, suppliers and test evidence are actually reviewed.
- The provider explains what the document is and who is responsible for the declaration.
- Testing is done at a competent laboratory for the relevant materials.
- You are not promised compliance in a day.
