Simplifying Business Setup for You

At NOZIX, we provide professional consultancy and certification support for businesses involved in the manufacturing, importing, refurbishing, and recycling of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). Under the latest E-Waste Management Rules, 2022, EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) has become a mandatory compliance requirement—and we’re here to make it easy.

What is EPR for E-Waste?

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) refers to the legal obligation of producers to ensure environmentally sound management of e-waste that arises from their products. This includes:

Registration on the CPCB EPR portal

Meeting annual recycling targets

Procuring EPR certificates from registered recyclers

Filing periodic returns and compliance reports

The E-Waste Rules, 2022 came into force on April 1, 2023, and apply to all producers, importers, refurbishers, recyclers, and bulk consumers of electronic goods listed under Schedule I of the Rules.

EPR registration is mandatory for:

Manufacturers and producers of electrical and electronic equipment

Importers of EEE or e-waste

Refurbishers involved in reconditioning used EEE

Recyclers who dismantle or recover components
