新加坡国家环境局（NEA）发布通告，确认欧盟将于2026年11月9日起将废旧锂离子电池（LiBs）重新归类为危险废物。受《巴塞尔公约》禁令修正案影响，欧盟国家届时起禁止向非OECD国家（含新加坡）出口此类废物。这意味着新加坡进口商将无法接收来自欧盟的废旧锂电池，无论其此前是否被归类为非危险废物（如B1090或B1010）。建议相关利益方提前制定缓解措施以减少业务中断风险。

Dear Sir/Madam

UPDATE ON THE EUROPEAN UNION (EU) WASTE SHIPMENT REGULATION: RECLASSIFICATION OF

WASTE LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES AS HAZARDOUS WASTE

The National Environment Agency (NEA) of Singapore would like to provide an update regarding the

EU’s re-classification of waste lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) as hazardous waste.

EU’s RECLASSIFICATION OF WASTE LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

2 The new classifications were published by the EU through a Commission Delegated Decision on 20

May 2025 (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_del/2025/934/oj/eng). The key points of the EU’s reclassification

are summarised below:

i. From 9 Nov 2026 onwards, all waste LiBs (in whole, dismantled, or segregated forms) will be re-

classified as hazardous waste by the EU. As a result of this re-classification and due to the Basel

Convention Ban Amendment, EU countries will no longer be allowed to export waste LiBs to non-

OECD countries, including Singapore;

ii. Consequently, local importers will not be able to receive waste LiBs from the EU specifically from 9

Nov 2026 onwards, regardless of whether they were previously classified under Basel Convention

waste codes as hazardous waste or as non-hazardous B1090 or B1010 waste.

3 NEA strongly advises all stakeholders affected by this EU reclassification to put in place mitigation

measures and strategies to minimise disruption and impact to business operations.

4 For further clarification, you may wish to contact Ms Nurul Hashim

(nurul_huda_hashim@nea.gov.sg) or Ms Foo Kai Lin (FOO_Kai_Lin@nea.gov.sg).

Yours faithfully,
