The Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG) implements the European [WEEE Directive](https://1cc-consulting.com/en/portfolio/weee/) and obliges manufacturers and importers, among others, to register with the Stiftung Elektro-Altgeräte Register (stiftung ear).   Who is affected? All companies that place electrical devices on the German market for the first time are subject to registration: - **Producers**: Own production or private labels - **Importers**: Import from abroad - **Foreign companies**: Online sellers based abroad selling to end customers - **Retailers**: If the actually obligated supplier is not registered This obligation applies to both B2C and B2B products, regardless of the quantity sold. ###### [![1cc_Registration_Process_DE](https://hubspot-no-cache-eu1-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/25955255/interactive-221157494980.png)](https://blog.1cc-consulting.com/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLKaHA1EG1uPo8AES9VdvrrUZ2uvnYWPCxZ0paBGUohksA31uxWTBZ0fHzxlP5mV1857D6C4LbjJplA1Xbv1e5%2FZDHLGGggwzu%2BDi76woqjUCLnsHdYHbbbM1oAcsgjSMommgQfSuZ%2Bn2YnCgUiOfISE7aup%2BKyz5ceXCU5KVGNpi5srX20b9WLX5mLhroAT%2BsIOcsUDSylGx39gpw%2FF%2Fip6Ad%2Fr0Z6wdczKqtpn85xZW3HKWn1i7n94fdTqn3rFPJU%3D&webInteractiveContentId=221157494980&portalId=25955255&hsLang=en) When is professional support worthwhile?
