Certification and readiness guide
What it is

A management decision—not only a certificate.

RoHS compliance depends on product scope, material and supplier evidence, testing where appropriate, technical documentation and ongoing change control.

Restricted-substance claims are supported by traceable supplier declarations, material evidence and controlled technical records.

Certification pathway

From defined scope to maintained certificate

  1. Step 01

    Application and scope

    Confirm the organization, sites, activities and standard to be assessed.

  2. Step 02

    Readiness and assessment

    Review documented arrangements and evidence that the system operates in practice.

  3. Step 03

    Decision and issue

    Close applicable findings before an independent certification decision and issue.

  4. Step 04

    Surveillance and renewal

    Maintain the system, complete surveillance activities and renew within the certification cycle.
