Deadline Clarification for the REACH Registration Dossiers

The European Commission has clarified the meaning of the “without undue delay” requirement regarding the update of #REACH registration dossiers.

The update will enter into force in December 2020 and will apply the following requirements:

• A deadline of three months applies for administrative updates, such as a change in a registrant’s status or identity.
• A deadline of six, nine or 12 months applies for more complex updates, for example when the classification and labelling of a substance without a harmonised classification changes, or there are changes in the chemical safety report or guidance on safe use.
• When there are multiple reasons for updating a registration, only one submission is required and the longest deadline applies.
• A deadline of three months applies to inform that the manufacture or import of a substance has ceased.

These deadlines also apply for changes to substances previously notified under the Dangerous Substances Directive (NONS).
