## Basis
- [Law No. 12.305/2010 (Planalto, in Portuguese)](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/_ato2007-2010/2010/lei/l12305.htm): Art. 56 states that reverse logistics for products under subsections V (lamps) and VI (electrical/electronic) of Art. 33 will be implemented progressively, according to a schedule established in regulations.

## How it applies
The progressive implementation of reverse logistics for products under subsections V and VI of Art. 33 of Law No. 12.305/2010 is governed by Art. 56, which refers to a schedule to be defined in regulations. This means manufacturers, importers, distributors, and retailers of these products must structure and implement reverse logistics systems, but the timeline and stages will be established in subsequent normative acts.

## Limits
- The progressive schedule is not defined in the law, only provided to be established in regulations.
- Implementation depends on the issuance of a specific regulation, as stated in Art. 56.
- This card does not cover detailed deadlines or stages, which must be checked in the regulation.
- Any subsequent changes to Law No. 12.305/2010 must be verified in the official source (Planalto).
- Art. 56 does not apply to subsections I to IV of Art. 33, which do not mention progressiveness.
