Abstract Eastern European standards on radiofrequency radiation (RFR) exposure limits (EL) are reviewed. These standards are mandatory. Additional standards specify requirements for equipment and methods for RFR measurements to determine compliance. The standards are based on USSR ELs with the exception of Poland and Czechoslovakia, where different approaches to exposure limitation were used. According to informal private communications, a new joint recommendation on RFR ELs for all countries belonging to the Council of Mutual Economic Cooperation (COMECON) is being developed. As far as can be judged from recent USSR publications, the new recommendations will establish ELs at levels comparable to those indicated in the international guidelines developed by the International Non-Ionizing Radiation Committee of the International Radiation Protection Association (INIRC/IRPA).
