Brian,
My view is that is it necessary to do so? When you sign a DoC for RoHS compliance, the product must fully comply with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU (all amendments are included) at time of signing. Otherwise it is not a correct DoC. Although it does not reach the deadline now, you need to sign another one before the deadline replacing the current one when it will be becoming invalid. RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU is the main directive and has many amendments, not only 2015/863/EU. I did not see any DoCs with all amendments included.

Our type of products do not have to comply with these new regulations until next year, but when we do, we plan to use the same nomenclature that is used for the amendments of Standards by using the Plus Sign (+). So under the RoHS Directive, we plan to list it like this: 2011/65/EU + 2015/863 Does anyone see any issue with this?

The DoC must be to 2011/65/EU Some people concentrate a lot on 2015/863 but there have been far more Delegated Directives dealing with exemptions than just this one dealing with substances (https://ec.europa.eu/environment/waste/rohs_eee/legis_en.htm) Best regards Charlie Charlie Blackham Sulis Consultants Ltd Tel: +44 (0)7946 624317 Web: https://sulisconsultants.com/ Registered in England and Wales, number 05466247 -----Original Message----- From: Amund Westin <am...@westin-emission.no <mailto:am...@westin-emission.no> > Sent: 21 November 2020 10:01 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG <mailto:EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> Subject: [PSES] ROHS and DoC For EU compliance, I assume Directive 2011/65/EU is still the correct reference to use? I see several parties who is referring to 2015/863 in their DoC, but isn't that reference just a replacement for Annex II in 2011/65/EU?
