On June 15, 2012, the European Commission released a document detailing Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) concerning the EU's Restrictions on Hazardous Substances Directive 2001/65/EU (RoHS 2). Because RoHS 2 is expected to have a significant effect on trade and business operations both for companies that do business with EU member nations and businesses with operations in the EU.

RoHS 2 was enacted on July 21, 2011, and is scheduled to come into effect on January 3, 2013. Comments and questions regarding the current version of the FAQs can be submitted to ENV-ROHS@ec.europa.eu by September 14, 2012. A revision of the FAQ document that may address submitted comments is expected to be published before RoHS 2 is put into effect.
