You can only amend sales agreement by mutual agreement - you can't
impose the obligation on the purchaser........

The end user brings it into the EU, then he is responsible. Period.

If your company is like ours where we have a direct sales force present
in the EU, then you need to amend sales agreements, or if you want,
arrange to pay recycling costs.

What about a situation where an end-user purchases direct from a source
outside of the EU?

If you don't have a legal entity within a member state then why are you
worried about WEEE? The obligation is down to your
importers/distributors..............

Have heard nothing about escrow account.

I know that some of the recycle companies that deal with foreign
companies are charging large fees up front, (even in some cases just to
talk about services) and they have monthly maintenance costs.

If your product is not sold to private households or can not be
otherwise classified as such, you can and should probably pass this
responsibility (recycling and costs) on to the end user by amended sales
agreements per 2002/96/EC Article 9.

The amendment will help your business avoid a margin hit due to unknown
future recycling costs and if you don't have the amendment, you can't
avoid those costs.

Subject: [LF] WEEE Escrow Account???

Hi Group,

We are working on implementing our WEEE program. We intend on using a
qualified agent in Europe to be our representative for the collection
process. I've heard that in addition to this we must setup an Escrow
account within the EU. Any truth to that? If so how do you go about
getting the account setup? And how much money needs to be in the
account. Any info on this subject is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff C
