Electronic Equipment, Drones and Bicycles

Especially with regard to products such as drones, bicycles and electronic equipment, many surprising questions arise:

  • Do I have to fulfill the requirements for CE marking? If so: Am I fulfilling them correctly?
  • Which prohibitions on materials do I need to observe?
  • Do I need to consider disposal even before beginning distribution?
  • How does the registration of new products with the registry for waste electrical and electronic equipment take place?
  • What special obligations do I need to observe regarding the distribution of batteries?

We are happy to support you – if necessary, also through cooperation partners, especially specialized engineers.

In case of non-compliance with the rules and regulations, there is the threat of a distribution ban. Severe fines up to sanctions under criminal law can also be the consequence.

Drones

Regarding modern aircraft, for example drones, further regulations must be adhered to, e.g., no-fly zones, usage limits, etc.

Various questions arise for distributors:

In which cases is a drone flight considered commercial? Where am I allowed to take aerial photographs? How may I market them?

In case of non-compliance with the usage limits, there is the threat of warning notifications and severe penalties.

For users, questions arise such as:

What can be shown in the aerial photographs? How can I distribute such photographs or share them on the web?
