26b Criteria 5: Declaration
Paragraph 26b contains seven criteria that would be used to determine when used equipment "should not normally be considered waste". Different actors took a variety of positions on one or several of these seven criteria.

Criteria 5 reads:

"Each shipment is accompanied by a written and signed declaration by the exporter which is readily available in full to all relevant government authorities. The declaration by the exporter shall declare that all of the criteria of paragraph 26 b are met. A standard form (Appendix II) can be used for such a declaration"
