Question 1.12 seems to answer it directly where it states they are category
3 IT equipment. The tags are clearly covered by RoHS. WEEE application
depends on where, and on what, they are placed.
Please note new contact info.

Subject: Re: [LF] RoHS/WEEE and RFID
Hi Denis, IPC LF Listservers,
RFID tags don't usually come all by themselves. They like little capacitors
or resistors come attached to something. Clothing isn't covered by RoHS,
neither are automobiles, yet a BOSE wave player, computer would be covered.
So I would say that if you sold your RFID to a company that placed it in,
or on an end product that was used by a consumer (household, or household
equivalent) then the RFID tag would have to conform to RoHS/WEEE.
In reading the EU FAQ we were given, it appears from those tiny notes at
the bottom the FAQ agrees with me.
The only thing I don't know is if some RFID tags or technologies have made
it on the TAC exception listing.
Yours in Engineering, Dave
