MOEF (Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change) permission is a mandatory regulatory clearance for any business importing or exporting hazardous waste or other notified waste materials in India.
It ensures compliance with the Hazardous Waste Management Rules, 2016 and India’s obligations under the Basel Convention — a legally binding international treaty on the transboundary movement of hazardous waste.
Certilize prepares, verifies and files the complete application on your behalf, and stays with you through ministry review, site inspection and post-approval compliance.
Any import or export of hazardous waste without a valid MOEF permit exposes your business to serious legal, financial and operational consequences.
Required under HWM Rules 2016 for all entities dealing in cross-border hazardous waste trade.
Aligns with Basel Convention requirements for transboundary movement of hazardous materials.
Ensures safe, documented and environmentally sound waste handling across the supply chain.
Supports India’s sustainable waste management and recycling goals through regulatory compliance.
If your business touches cross-border hazardous waste in any capacity, this permit is non-negotiable.
