The USB-C directive aims to standardize mobile device charging ports across the EU, reducing e-waste and addressing market fragmentation by 2025.
Under the USB-C directive, the EU requires mobile phones and other devices to provide universal charging options, aiming for slower technological obsolescence and enhanced consumer convenience.
The European Commission plans to review tech advancements and e-waste concerns regularly to keep the universal charging initiative effective and relevant as markets develop.
Devices already available on the market that lack USB-C ports are exempt from immediate change; however, new models introduced must comply with the directive.
