REACH WORKSHOP AISA, 2012 | REACH24H Consulting Group | REACH24h.COM
01 Will the data not be accepted unless it is generated by the
institutes located in EU member states according to ECHA?
Or the data is allowed under REACH when the data-
generating institute located outside the EU gets
recognition or certified for compliance with the OECD
Principles of Good Laboratory?
1)歐盟執行 REACH 法規時,是否只接受歐盟成員國測
試機構出具的測試資料?非歐盟成員國的測試機構如
通過歐盟 GLP 檢查,其測試資料是否可被接受?2)歐
盟對測試機構有什麼要求及管理手段?
02 Are there any enforcement activities upon the automobiles
according to ECHA? Any advice for automobile
manufacturers to be compliant with REACH regulation?
Shall management system be a must to automobile
manufacturers for their purpose of REACH compliance?
ECHA是否會對汽車行業進行執法監督?汽車行業應如
何做到 REACH 合規,比如強制採用管理系統進行法規
符合?
03 A question from a real case we have been through:
substance A has been pre-registered for 100-1000tons/year,
and the 2nd deadline is approaching. Considering to take
good advantage of the pre-registration for the same
substance completed by the EU importer, could this pre-
registrant apply for lowering the pre-registered tonnage
band to 10-100tons/year? If yes, how to manipulate it?
In another scenario, the potential registrant of substance B
originally plans to complete formal registration by 2018.
Considering that some say LOA price will likely go up for
those co-registrant joining late, should the company change
its strategy to an earlier registration date?
1)一家司最初預註冊了 100-1000 噸/年物質 A。最近
收到 LR的 LOA 報價,很貴。考慮到這家公司最大的進
口商也預註冊了該物質,扣除其預註冊噸位後,剩餘
噸位<100,因此該公司想下調預註冊噸位至 10-100 噸
/年。如何操作? 2)一公司物質 B 預註冊了 10-100 噸
/年,截止期到 2018.但據瞭解,越早參與聯合註冊,
LR 收取的 LOA 費用越低,越晚參加,LOA 費用較高。
因此,是否該公司也應該儘早參與聯合註冊,比如在
2013 年 5 月 31 前完成正式註冊?
04 Please explain the enforcement activities implemented by
the competent authorities in 2013 over Only
Representatives for their due diligence under REACH.
請講解執法部門對唯一代表(Only Representative)
的 REACH 法規合規檢查
05 When is the suggested deadline of technical dossiers
submission if the registration must be done by 2013? We
assume substance D will be used in product A, B and C (the
concentration of D in A B C is 50% equally), and each of 3
products are shipped to the EU for at100tons/year. So if in
that case, shall substance D be registered compulsorily
before May 31 2013?
1)對於 2013 年需要完成註冊的物質,其提交技術卷宗
的時限截止到什麼時候?如果到截止期沒有提交的
話,什麼時候可以再次提交?2)假設一家公司出口
A,B,C 三种产品,物質 D 分別在產品 A.B.C 中存在,
A.B.C 每年分別出口的量都是 100 噸,D 在 A.B.C 中的
含量均為 50%,問 D 需不需要在 2013 年完成註冊?
06 What standards shall be reached for an accredited
laboratory qualified for chemical assessment? Would it be
possible to know how many accredited laboratories have
been populated in China? As an independent 3rd party
but not a manufacturer neither a distributor of a chemical
1)開展化學品評價的實驗室需要哪些資質,國內有多
少這樣的實驗室?2)獨立協力廠商,不從事該物質生
產經營的單位或個人可以作為領頭註冊人嗎?
REACH WORKSHOP AISA, 2012 | REACH24H Consulting Group | REACH24h.COM
substance, will it be allowed to take the role of lead
registrant for this substance?
07 To those companies exporting biocidal product formulation
to the EU, what might be good advice for their compliance
with REACH?
對於出口的歐洲的農藥製劑產品,做 REACH 符合性工
作的建議?
08 How to make adjustment after registration completed
for 100-1000tons/year for increasing demands from the
EU? Do I have to update the tonnage band or anything else?
How much I would be charged for this update? Will it be
allowed to update registered volume after corresponding
deadline? According to the Netherlands authority,
exposure scenarios shall be written in SDS, will it be widely
required for in other EU member states?
1)如果完成了 100-1000噸 REACH 註冊,以後由於產能
增加或客戶年需求增加需如何操作?更新卷宗重的註
冊噸位資訊就可以了?是否發生費用?發生那些費
用?費用是多少?是否可以在註冊截止日之後更新註
冊噸位數量級?2)以後的 SDS 中要像荷蘭當局規定一
樣包含暴露場景嗎?
09 According to REACH regulation, the net tonnage will be
covered by downstream users if downstream users do not
request manufacturers to cover the imported volume by the
registration number. That may lead to the result that real
export exceeds the registered tonnage band. In 2013, ECHA
will cooperate with competent authorities of each EU
member state together with Customs to implement REACH
enforcement, aiming at pushing manufacturers and
downstream users to fulfill related responsibilities. Does it
mean as one of most important part that non-EU
manufactures’ OR shall provide quantity coverage
statement for each export?
REACH 法規規定:超出註冊噸位上線的量,若下游客
戶未要求生產商涵蓋,則預設為由下游客戶涵蓋,則
易造成實際出口量>涵蓋量。2013 年後,ECHA,歐洲
成員國 RECH 監管機構將于海關聯合執法,通過雙管
齊下的方式規範生產商及下游進口商的行為,是否意
味著生產商的每一次出口必須主動提供噸位涵蓋證
明?
01 Some chemical reagent used for testing in a Chinese
company’s own laboratory is imported from the source
abroad and delivered by a logistics company. Under this
condition, is this kind of companies considered as importers
and subject to the obligation of notification under China
REACH?
企業實驗室用於實驗測試的某種化學試劑(屬於危險
化學品)是從國外 I 進口,並由物流公司送達。這樣
的話,企業是否屬於進口企業,是否需要辦理登記?
02 Cefaclor as raw material is used to produce antibiotic Ceclor
suspension, but Cefaclor is not listed in IECSC (the inventory
of existing chemical substance) currently. The question is in
China whether Cefaclor needs to be notified as a new
chemical substance according to China REACH, or benefits
from exemption of notification responsibility due to related
pharmaceutical regulation.
頭孢克洛作為主要原料來生產抗生素藥希克勞懸混
劑,但頭孢克洛目前不在中國現有化學物質名錄中,
是否要作為新化學物質申報,還是可以作為有相應藥
品法規而得到豁免?
03 If a raw material is not included by IECSC, what are the
responsibilities the suppliers and final users supposed to
undertake respectively?
假設原料未在現有名錄中,供應商和最終用戶法規承
擔責任各是什麼?
04 Please explain the cost and duration of notification in a
normal case.
新化學物質申報的費用和週期解釋
REACH WORKSHOP AISA, 2012 | REACH24H Consulting Group | REACH24h.COM
05 According to the contract of testing management, will
REACH24H provide data of the substance, including the
physical & chemical properties, toxicological, and biological
system related testing data?

China REACH.
新化學物質法規(China REACH)下, 混合物如何登記。
07 Please explain the obligation of the annual report on new
chemical substance submitted by notifier to CRC before
February 1st each year.
請解釋新物質在完成登記後所進行的年度活動報告。
08 Under such a circumstance that a mixture is
compounded physically by substance A and B, among which
substance A is known as new substance and a polymer
through IECSC inquiry while substance B is an existing
substance but also a polymer. The question is how to
manage this notification, as a mixture product of AB or
simply the substance A merely?
The synthesis of polymer by monomer is quite
complicated. For example, three monomers are synthesized
into one polymer. However, due to the difference of
chemical reaction and temperature, the ultimate
polymerization type is different. It is possible to generate
two distinguishing polymers by 3 same chemical substance
that allow for this. The question is given that the 2 polymers
has two different chain length, whether or not these 2
polymers will be required for 2 notification.
1)一種物質為混合物,A 和 B 物理混合,其中 A 經查
為新化學物質且為聚合物。B 物質不是新化學物質也
為聚合物。請問申報時是以 AB混合物申報,還是只要
申報 A 物質即可代替該混合物新化學物質的申報?2)
由於單體反應生成聚合物比較複雜。例如三種單體反
應生成一種聚合物,但由於反應量,溫度的不同。聚合
的形式會有所不同,請問:同意的反應物質生成不同
的聚合物,聚合物只是鏈的長短不同,是否需要兩次
申報
09 Where to know “chemicals with unidentified hazardous
properties”? How to identify a chemical as a hazardous
chemical?
“危險特性尚未確定的化學品”對怎樣界定?危險化
學品的界定標準
10 To the reuse of hazardous solvent such as methylbenzene,
aniline during production, shall those manufactures be
subject to registration of hazardous chemicals under related
regulations?
危險化學品登記是否包括生產過程中回收套用的危險
性溶劑如,甲苯,苯胺類
11 What is the timeline of the publication of new Catalog of
Hazardous Chemicals, and whether national standard of
GHS will be revised? What is the plan of China GHS
implementation at next phase, and the specific
responsibilities of each competent authorities in this
regard? We have noticed that even the same hazardous
chemical products, the GHS labels used have Chinese
standard format and exporting country standard format
respectively. Under this circumstance, will there be any
suggestions to combine these 2 format of labels to save
time?
1)危險化學品目錄什麼時候能出來,國家標準(GHS)
修不修訂?2)今後 GHS 推進的具體計畫表 各級政府
企業雙方的職責等? 3)同一危險化學品出口和國內銷
售標籤格式有兩種,如何整合?
REACH WORKSHOP AISA, 2012 | REACH24H Consulting Group | REACH24h.COM
12 Before the new Catalog of Hazardous Chemicals being
published, is there any advice for Chinese enterprises to
handle classification and management of chemicals on their
own? Currently, quite an amount of SDSs provided by
Chinese enterprises have failed to meet the format
requirements in many other areas. With continuous
strengthening of chemical regulations implementation in
China, and moreover the requirements from manufacturers
turn to be even stricter to raw material suppliers. From the
standpoint of government, how will they implement
administration of GHS compliance?
<危險化學品名錄>未公佈前,中國企業如何做好對化
學物質的分類及管理?目前來看國內較多企業提供的
SDS 格式都不合國標。同時法規不斷更新,生產企業對
原料供應商要求也越來越嚴格,從國家層面來看,回
事怎樣監管?
13 If a company purchases some hazardous chemicals and
carry out processing physically without chemical
modification during it. In that case, will this company still be
taken as a hazardous chemical manufacturer and subject to
registration? It is already known that a product has
physical hazards; is it compulsory to have hazardous
identification? If in a case, taking painting as an example,
products of one manufacturer are similar in hazardous
properties but still with some differences in components,
this manufacturer will be allowed to conduct registration for
the whole category of his painting products, or each
painting product subject to its unique registration?
1) 如果公司只是買某些危險化學品進行機械混合,
算不算危險化學品生產企業?2) 產品已經知道有物
理危害,還要進行危險性鑒定嗎?3) 產品登記需要
以大類登記還是以单个产品登記?
14 Will a Chinese importer have to apply for registration
certificate only for hazardous chemicals imported for the
first time, or even for hazardous chemicals imported before
Decree 591 by State Council (Regulation on Safe
Management of Hazardous Chemicals) released?
首次進口的危險化學品需要辦登記證,還是 591 號令
實施之前(早於 2011 年 11 月)的危險進口化學品也
需要辦證?
15 Many chemicals may contain hazards more or less, so it is
interesting to know based on what standards, the chemicals
in Chinese Catalog of Hazardous Chemicals are decided.
危險化學品名錄的制定是按照什麼標準?很多化學品
都有危害,一些很輕微,一些很嚴重,按什麼標準收入
到名錄中?
16 Regarding the hazardous chemical products of foreign
companies stored in tariff-free zone in China, shall those
products be registered in accordance with regulations? If
yes, who should fulfill the registration obligation?
國外公司在中國保稅區的危險品,是否需要登記?如
果需要,由誰登記?
17 Shall the label of chemicals exported to China be pin
Chinese? If a batch of imported chemicals fail to be
labelled according to the requirements under China GHS,
how will the enforcement activities implemented, will the
Custom involve in?
1)進口的化學品標籤是否一定要中文?2)如果進口
化學品沒符合 GHS 要求的標籤,海關是否會放行,誰來
監管?
18 If differences of GHS label and UN code in a SDS indeed
exist according to regulations in different areas, which
regulation shall be complied with foremost? For
example, product manufactured in China without any
1)化學品 SDS 中設計的 GHS 標籤和 UN 編碼,與其他國
家不一致的時候,以誰為準則,如何協調一致?2)如
果某物質出口到美國,國內 SDS 中沒有 UN 編碼要求,
但是到了貿易國卻要求 UN 編碼,給貿易商造成了損
REACH WORKSHOP AISA, 2012 | REACH24H Consulting Group | REACH24h.COM
compulsory requirements for UN code in SDS, while
exported to US where UN code in SDS is a must, how to
bridge this gap?
失。以後避免這樣的問題?
19 How to handle the classification of chemicals not included
in the Catalog of Hazardous Chemicals in which a number of
chemicals already with harmonized classification?
将要出台的新版包含统一分类的危险化学品名录,如
果发现物质分类清单中的,又如何分类?
20 Please make comparison between SDS, GHS of China
and US. 2) What should be especially concerned with
when we need to refer to the data for hazardous
classification from US?
美國 SDS,GHS,資料的直接引用時的應注意什麼?
