Amendments to the WEEE Regulation were published on 6 February 2014 and entered into froce on 14 February 2014. The Regulations do not contain WEEE collection targets, but do introduce photovoltaic modules in a sub-category of Category 4. Reporting of B2C EEE n Denmakr must be autited by an independent third party auditor; this requirement applies both to individually registered Producers and Producers who have joined a collective system. However, under the new Regulations, Producers with an annual turnover of less than DKK 1 million (EUR 134,000) can apply for an exemption from the auditing requirements.

The Regulations also exempt compliance organizations from the requirement to provide a financial guarantee for B2C WEEE if they have a market share of more than 5%.
