To achieve this purpose, the research was supported by the theoretical framework of the circular economy and green business, in addition, the documentary methodology was applied, which allowed presenting results on the process involved in the treatment of electrical and electronic waste and scrap WEEE in Colombia, international quality and sustainability certifications for the export of WEEE and export opportunities of electrical and electronic waste and scrap of Colombian entrepreneurs. The research concluded that Colombian businessmen have knowledge about the regulations governing WEEE exports and this makes it easier for them to obtain certifications both nationally and internationally to approach the market, in addition, they have a great opportunity to export WEEE in countries such as South Korea, United States, Canada, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands, due to the fact that they offer a tariff rate of 0% for tariff item 8549 that was negotiated with Colombia in the different FTAs, there is also the possibility of entering the Japanese market with an upcoming FTA with Colombia, thus opening the opportunity for the Colombian businessman to enter the WEEE market
