Pre-registration with K-REACH

21/12/2018

As part of K-REACH, South Korea now asks companies manufacturing or importing existing substances in Korea to pre-notify, or pre-register their substances between 1st January and 30th June 2019.

Why should I pre-Register?

Companies who will have complied with the process in due time will be granted a grace period before having to fully register. This will allow said companies to keep on importing or manufacturing these substance without a full Registration, for an extended period of time.

For whom?

Pre-Registration affects companies producing or importing substances at a volume superior to 1 tonne per year. Beware, however, of the differences with European REACH: in Korea, the annual volume is not determined on an average of 3 years, but on the maximum volume imported or produced in any year between 2016 and 2018.

How to prepare?
