The scrap imports list includes plaster, iron particles, chemicals used in electronics production, and soft polyethylene particles. Also on the list are craft paper, copper and aluminum.
The decision only applies to scrap being imported as production material for domestic use. It does not apply to scrap being imported for re-export or scrap that is in transition through Vietnamese territories.
The prime minister has asked the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, in cooperation with other relevant agencies, to generate national technical standards on environmental issues for the 36 types of imported scrap.
The decision will go into effect on February 5, 2015 .
