6. Small and wireless information and communications technology equipment (the external dimension does not exceed 50 cm).

Weee guidance goals:

• Producers must register with the national organizational authorities in each of the European Union countries, where the product is sold and sales volumes are reported to each type of product.
• Producers should arrange or participate in an EEE collection system at the end of life in order to recover, reuse, and recycling goals.
