The European Commission published a proposal to bar non-OECD countries like India from importing EU metal waste starting in May 2027. The measure relies on waste shipment rules after plans for an export duty were dropped, drawing mixed reactions from industry groups.
India will be barred from importing EU metal scrap under a new law taking effect in May 2027. The European Commission published the draft rules on Friday, setting out non-OECD exemption criteria.
