The problem
Waste Shipment Regulation
Where waste batteries move across borders to an approved recycler, the Waste Shipment Regulation governs the shipment. The LOOBA catalogue names this instrument without a number; the Union recast in force is Regulation (EU) 2024/1157, replacing Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006.
Waste Shipment Regulation (currently Regulation (EU) 2024/1157)
Treatment capacity is not always in the same Member State as the installation. Cross-border movement is a separate legal path, not a footnote.
