RoHS are required for export to the EU as of July 2006. 

They require lead-free solder and a bit of a higher temperature for soldering. It seems that this is not a big deal in terms of the SX packaging as the epoxy covering is quite durable.
As a follow up, do the RoHS chips REQUIRE lead-free solder if your using them outside Europe?
 

In other words, if I have an RoHS part, but am not building an RoHS compliant assembly, do I still need to use lead free solder with the part?
