9 substances proposed as REACH SVHC intended substances

As of May 31, 2023, the official website of the European Chemical Administration (ECHA) has announced nine SVHC intended substances proposed by Norway, France, and Germany, respectively. Subsequently, relevant member states will submit a proposal dossier prepared in accordance with Annex XV of the REACH regulation to ECHA before the scheduled date. The proposal dossier will be published about one month after receiving it, and a 45 day public review will be initiated. The reviewed substances will be added to the SVHC candidate substance list.

The REACH regulation stipulates that SVHC needs to complete the notification obligation within 6 months after being included in the candidate list, which is quite urgent for enterprises. It is recommended that enterprises pay attention to the risks of substances in research and development, procurement, and other stages as soon as possible and make early responses.
