BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

E-waste constitutes one of the fastest growing waste streams globally.

In 2022, it was estimated that around 5.3 billion people were connected to the Internet and the number of mobile phone subscriptions is currently greater than the human population.

Annually, an estimated 53.6 million metric tonnes of e-waste are generated containing USD 57 billion worth of precious and valuable materials, in terms of their economic value.

In line with Resolution 66, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) carries out a number of activities related to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), or "e-waste" and in the areas of climate change and green digital transformation.

As part of ITU's work in the area of e-waste, the Telecommunication Development Bureau needs a dedicated consultant to perform a deep dive into the existing procedures and government digital services or offline services, available through the Government of Thailand.

These procedures and services will relate to existing and foreseen registration and licensing requirements of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) importers, distributors, manufacturers, (producers), retailers and for the EEE products they place on the market in Thailand.

In addition to the procedures, the deep dive will also include a review of the laws that justify these procedures and any upcoming laws anticipated to set similar requirements.

The findings from the deep dive will feed the "administrative arrangements" chapter of a technical proposal report being prepared by ITU for the Government of Thailand under the project: ''Creating a Circular Economy for Electronics and Electricals in Thailand and in Mongolia.

''

It is expected that the deep dive will identify existing procedures and services in which new obligations related to the environmental policy principle of Extended Producer Responsibility for electricals and electronics companies (namely registration with the EPR system), could be incorporated, in order to reduce the duplication of registration / licensing and / or reporting requirements for these companies and to reduce the administrative burden and barriers to trade.

At the same time, it is anticipated that the incorporation of the EPR obligations within existing services and procedures will improve enforcement capabilities by the government through streamlining of data collection and monitoring.
