Control on Import and Export of Waste
Classification of Wastes
According to their characteristics, wastes commonly generated worldwide are classified under the WDO into two main categories, namely the Sixth Schedule (non-hazardous recyclables) and the Seventh Schedule (hazardous wastes). These Schedules may be amended by the Environmental Protection Department (EPD) by notice published in the Gazette.
[ Important Note : "Disposal" of imported waste is prohibited unless authorized by EPD! ]
