Guidance " Carrying out chemical exposure assessment with use of measured data or modeling principles for chemical safety assessment"
This guidance illustrates procedures for assessing the expected or actual exposure to chemical as one of the integral steps of chemical safety assessment according to EU REACH Regulation, including the use of IT tools for modeling and predicting of the exposure.
Guidance "Development and update of a technical dossier for the registration of chemicals by a non-EU manufacturer in accordance with the requirements of the REACH Regulation in IUCLID 6 software"
Starting from 21 June 2016, the European Chemicals Agency accepts applications for the registration of chemicals that are only created in IUCLID 6 software or directly in REACH-IT.
IUCLID has undergone a number of major changes as a result of ECHA's ongoing work to improve the enforcement of the REACH Regulation.
The guidance provides a clear explanation of how to work in IUCLID 6, the correct completion of technical dossier fields to develop a valid dossier that will pass checks in REACH-IT.

Guidance "European criteria for the prioritization of substances of very high concern (SVHC) for inclusion in Annex XIV (List of substances subject to authorization)".
This workshop examines the criteria for prioritizing substances of very high concern (SVHCs) for their withdrawal from the EU market with the transitional option of obtaining a temporary authorization for use - inclusion in Annex XIV of the EU REACH Regulation.
Substances with certain hazardous properties that cause special harm to human health or the environment, according to new world trends (including European) are considered separately, studied in depth, and often such substances are restricted or banned for some or for all uses. Read in full
Guidance "Hazardous chemicals, mixtures and products containing them. Existing and forecast restrictions on use by countries. Practical recommendations for national exporters »
Substances with certain hazardous properties that cause special harm to human health or the environment are considered separately, studied in more depth in accordance with new world trends, and such substances are often restricted or banned for some or all uses. As a result of systematic research, such substances can be detected among previously relatively safe substances, and later - regulated. The purpose of such regulation and imposition of restrictions is to properly control the risks associated with the use of these substances. Read in full
Guidance "Practical" alphabet "of European chemical legislation for national exporters"
Guidance presents all the important definitions, deciphered abbreviations to facilitate understanding of processes and reading of "chemical" EU legislation.
Guidance on search and use of source data (scientific and technical, technological, toxicological, ecotoxicological, etc.) information for the development of registration dossiers, safety data sheets SDS / eSDS and other documents for substance evaluation (mixture). Analysis of informativeness, reliability and accessibility of world and national databases.
In this guidance shows approaches to finding and using information on chemical safety for the development of SDS, registration dossiers and chemical safety assessment in accordance with the EU REACH Regulation and GHS.
The paper provides links to all current databases on chemicals as of 2016.
Guidance “Substances in articles under REACH”
Guidance presents the requirements of the EU REACH Regulation, which are set for articles and chemicals in their composition.
Issues related to the registration of substances in articles, notifications to the ECHA on substances in articles, the transfer of information along the supply chain, restrictions on the use of substances in articles are discussed in detail in this paper.
Guidance on authorization for especially hazardous substances exported to the EU.
Some of chemicals of high concern that pose a particular threat and cause uncontrolled risks (SVHCs) will be permanently removed from the EU. Such substances are included in Annex XIV of the EU REACH Regulation and in order to ensure a smooth transition of the industry to alternative substances, the Regulation envisages to obtain a temporary permit (authorization) for their specific use, after which they will be withdrawn from the market.
This guidance details the authorization procedure for substances under the EU REACH Regulation and provides practical guidance for successful compliance.
