On March 11, 2019, Taiwan EPA issued Amendments of the New and Existing Chemical Registration Regulation (hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Regulation"), specifying that Standard Registration for 106 existing chemical substances should be completed within 2 or 3 years. The Amendments aim to effectively improve the grasp of substance information with wide circulation, high potential hazards, or lack of information, and strengthen the basis for inter-departmental control of chemical substance risks. In addition, the "Registration Regulation" adds annual reporting requirements, which require annual reporting of last year’s volume of manufacture or importation of registered new and existing substances to be submitted between 1 Apr and 30 Sep.
In this webinar, we will focus on the introduction of the existing chemical substance Standard Registration process, new annual report requirements, and compliance advice for companies, so that companies can keep abreast of regulatory developments and avoid trade disruptions.
