In accordance with the IMDS ToU change process, users will be notified via the IMDS website and by email 30 days prior to activation. Upon logging into IMDS, users will be prompted to review and confirm the updated Terms of Use.

Key Updates in IMDS ToU V7:

The revision paves the way for IMDS-registered companies (OEMs and suppliers) to report to electric/electronic companies that have joined IMDS as OEMs. This initiative has been agreed upon and supported by the IMDS participating OEMs.
The name changes from IMDS Advanced Interface to IMDS Connect have been reflected.

The amendments of the ToU V7 have been approved by the IMDS-participating OEMs, and representatives from supplier organizations (AIAG, CLEPA, JAPIA) have been duly informed.

This update is expected to foster synergies between the automotive and electric/electronic industry sectors, enabling reuse of existing IMDS material data and supporting future enhancements, such as RoHS compliance.
