I make equipment that is sold to the military and/or the government. Am I covered by RoHS?
For some background, refer to the related information in the WEEE Frequently Asked Questions. There is some debate about this, but the most common view around Europe is that equipment sold to the military or governments or companies for national security purposes are not covered by RoHS. This does not mean that such equipment is excluded from RoHS if it is sold to customers who use it for purposes other than national security. Different countries have different views on this. If you are selling to a government, the best advice is to check with that government what their policy is. If you are selling to companies, be very careful about the purposes for which they will be using your products.
