韩国通报促进资源节约和循环利用法案：

1.《促进资源节约和循环利用法》执行法令部分修正案草案

2.促进资源节约和循环利用法执行规则部分修正案草案

主要内容如下：

1.大韩民国修订了《促进资源节约和循环利用法》，该法自2018年12月24日起生效，将于2019年12月25日生效。修订后的法案要求包装材料和结构应根据其可回收性进行分级和评估。等级一经确定，还应在产品标签上标明，以促进易回收包装的生产。每种产品都应该贴上品级标签，但与销售禁令无关。

2.2019年8月修订的子法案适用于更高法案（促进资源节约和回收法案）中规定的执行程序。

3.考虑到行业的准备期，修订后的法案生效后将给予宽限期。评分和评估期为9个月，标签期为15个月，整个宽限期总计为2年。

4.此外，还将禁止使用聚氯乙烯塑料和有色PET瓶，这对回收过程有着极其不利的影响。但是，如果这种包装在市场上没有替代品，或者与人们的饮食和药品密切相关，则可以免除禁令。有色宠物奶瓶将被禁止只用于矿泉水和饮料。

5.原则上，给予制造商一年时间，以提高其产品的可回收性。生产过程发生变化或者类似原因，给予3年的改进期，在此期间未改进的，禁止使用或者处以罚款。

英文原文：

Sub Act on the Promotion of Saving and Recycling of Resources 

1.Draft partial amendment of the Enforcement Decree of the Act on the Promotion of Saving and Recycling of Resources (19 pages, in Korea) 

2.Draft partial amendment of the Enforcement Rule of the Act on the Promotion of Saving and Recycling of Resources (31 pages, in Korean)

1.The Republic of Korea has amended the Act on the Promotion of Saving and Recycling of Resources as of 24 December 2018, which will come into force on 25 December 2019. The amended Act requires that materials and structures of packaging be graded and evaluated according to their recyclability. Once the grades are determined, they should also be marked on the labels of products, which is to promote the production of easily recyclable packaging. The grades should be labelled on each product, but they have nothing to do with sales ban.

2.The Amendment of sub-Act in August 2019 is for the enforcement procedures defined in the higher Act (Act on the Promotion of Saving and Recycling of Resources).

3.A grace period will be granted after the entry into force of the amended Act in consideration of industry's preparation period. Nine months will be granted for grading and evaluation and up to 15 months for labeling, which adds up to a total of 2 years for the entire grace period.

4.In addition, a ban will be imposed on PVC plastics and colored PET bottles, which have extremely negative impact on recycling process. However, if such packaging does not have substitutes available on the market or are closely related to people's diet and medicines, they will be exempt from the ban. Colored PET bottles will be banned only for mineral water and drinks.

5.In principle, a year is given to manufacturers to improve their products' recyclability. In case there have been changes in manufacturing process or for similar reasons, a 3 year improvement period is given, and if no improvement is made within this period, either the use of such product is banned or a fine is imposed.
