Cyprus regulates extended producer responsibility by legislation for four waste streams — packaging, waste electrical and electronic equipment, batteries and accumulators, and tyres; applications for collective and individual systems are submitted to the Department of Environment (Τμήμα Περιβάλλοντος) and the resulting permits are signed by the Minister of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, with regular inspections of the systems. The WEEE stream is harmonised by the Waste (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations of 2015, Κ.Δ.Π. 73/2015, under which those who place electrical and electronic equipment on the market are obliged, collectively or individually, to bear the cost of managing their products once they become waste, and the Department applies the Union target of separate collection for that stream on the Directive 2012/19/EU basis. For batteries and accumulators the Department keeps a register of producers and publishes the annual producer registration application. Which electrical and electronic equipment is inside the stream, and the medical-device exclusions that apply to it, are recorded on the Union rows of this atlas rather than restated here.
How to read the answer
Classification is only the first layer
A device may have one medical risk class and still trigger separate radio, electrical, measurement, radiation, environmental, import, or installation requirements. The checker keeps each regulatory object separate.
Dossier or import evidence
Testing can belong inside the medical dossier, while some documents apply to each shipment.
Site or operator licence
Radiation, installation, use, or measurement controls may apply to a facility or operator.
Country-specific scope
Other Cyprus routes to check
Electrical safety
Medical electrical equipment outside the Low Voltage Directive
Evidence is normally handled inside the medical-device registration route.
Source association awaiting review
EMC
EMC Directive switched off by the more specific MDR essential requirements
Evidence is normally handled inside the medical-device registration route.
Source association awaiting review
Wireless / radio
Radio Communications (Radio Equipment) Regulations Κ.Δ.Π. 310/2016, as amended
Applies when the product, feature, component, or use is in scope.
Source association reviewed
Metrology
Weights and Measures Service — legal metrology authority
Applies to the facility, operator, or installation rather than only the product.
Source association reviewed
Radiation
Department of Labour Inspection — ionizing radiation protection and nuclear safety
Applies to the facility, operator, or installation rather than only the product.
Source association reviewed
Laser / UV / ultrasound
Department of Labour Inspection — non-ionizing radiation in the working environment
Applies to the facility, operator, or installation rather than only the product.

About this checker
A preliminary tool, not a regulatory determination
Describe the complete product — radio, power, measurement, radiation, battery, materials, accessories, intended use, import route, and existing approvals. The free checker maps those facts to the maintained Cyprus scheme matrix and links each route to its maintained source associations, with reviewed, candidate and unresolved states shown separately.
Use the result to identify questions and official sources. Final scope can depend on exact models, modules, bands, components, claims, HS codes, import structure, installation site, and current authority interpretation.
- Is this the same as medical device classification in Cyprus?
- No. Risk classification determines the main medical-device pathway. This checker runs after classification and looks for additional product certificates, dossier evidence, import documents, and facility or operator licences.
- Does “no separate certificate” mean no testing is required?
- No. Safety, EMC, performance, or other evidence can still be required inside the medical-device dossier even when there is no separate national product certificate.
- Is the result an official regulatory determination?
- No. It is a preliminary applicability assessment. Review the linked official source and confirm the final route with the relevant authority, certification body, importer, or regulatory professional.
