HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Objectives
1. The purpose of this Regulation is to establish a common system of
notification and information for imports from and exports to thirdcountries of certain chemicals which are banned or severely restricted onaccount of their effects on human health and the environment and to
apply the international notification and ‘prior informed consent’ (PIC)
procedure established by the United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)(
2).
2. The purpose of this Regulation is also to ensure that the provisions
of Directive 67/548/EEC on the classification, packaging and labelling
of substances dangerous to man or the environment when they are
placed on the market in the Member States shall also apply to suchsubstances when they are exported from the Member States to thirdcountries.
3. This Regulation does not apply to substances or preparations
imported or exported for the purposes of analysis or scientific research
and development as defined in Article 2, where the quantities involved
are sufficiently small that they are unlikely to affect human health or theenvironment adversely.1992R2455 — EN — 22.01.1995 — 002.001 — 3

Article 2
Definitions
For the purposes of this Regulation, the following definitions shall
apply:
1.‘chemical subject to notification’ means any of the chemical
substances listed in Annex I and preparations containing any ofthese chemicals if the preparation has a labelling obligation underCommunity legislation as a result of the presence of the Annex I
chemical;
2.‘chemical subject to the PIC procedure’ means each chemical listed
in Annex II, whether by itself or in preparations, whethermanufactured or obtained from nature, unless its concentration ina preparation is insufficient for a labelling requirement under
Community legislation.
3.‘banned chemical’ means a chemical which has, for health or
environmental reasons, been prohibited for all uses by finalgovernmental regulatory action;
4.‘severely restricted chemical’ means a chemical for which, for
health or environmental reasons, virtually all uses have beenprohibited by final governmental regulatory action but for whichcertain specific uses remain authorized;
5.‘export’ means
(a) the permanent or temporary export of products meeting the
conditions of Article 9 (2) of the Treaty,
(b) the re-export of products not meeting the conditions referred to
in (a) which are placed under a customs procedure other thantransit procedure;
6.‘import’ means the physical introduction into the customs territory
of the Community of products which are placed under a customsprocedure other than transit procedure;
7.‘prior informed consent’ (PIC) means the principle that interna-

in order to protect human health or the environment should not
proceed without the agreement, where such agreement exists, orcontrary to the decision of the designated national authority of theimporting country;
8.‘reference number’ means the number assigned by the Commission
to each chemical subject to notification when it is exported for the
first time to a third country. This number remains unchanged forevery subsequent export of the same chemical from the Communityto the same third country;
9.‘labelling’ means the provision on a label of information related to
the potential hazard to health, safety or the environment from use of
the chemical. It does not refer to labelling requirements for thetransport of dangerous goods.

conditions; it includes the determination of intrinsic properties,
performance and efficacy as well as scientific investigation relatedto product development.
Article 3
Designation of authorities
1. Each Member State shall designate the authority or authorities,
hereinafter referred to as the ‘designated authority’ or ‘designated
authorities’, competent for the notification and information procedureslaid down by this Regulation. It shall inform the Commission of suchdesignation.
2. As far as the participation of the Community in the international
PIC procedure is concerned, the Commission shall act as commondesignated authority with regard to receiving information from the1992R2455 — EN — 22.01.1995 — 002.001 — 4
▼B
competent bodies dealing with the international PIC procedure and for
providing information to these bodies on common decisions which havebeen taken in close cooperation and consultation with the Member States

Article 4
Exports to third countries
1. When a chemical subject to notification is due to be exported from
the Community to a third country for the first time following the date as
of which ist becomes subject to the provisions of this Regulation, theexporter shall provide the designated authority of the Member State inwhich he is established, no later than 30 days before the export is due totake place, with the information contained in Annex III necessary to
enable the designated authority to effect a notification. The designated
authority shall take the necessary measures to ensure that the appropriateauthorities of the country of destination receive notification of theintended export. Such notification, which shall as far as possible bemade at least 15 days before export, must comply with the requirementsset out in Annex III.
Where the export of a chemical relates to an emergency situation in
which any delay may endanger public health or the environment in theimporting country, the provisions referred to above may be waived
wholly or partly at the discretion of the designated authority of the
exporting Member State.
The designated authority shall send a copy of the notification to the
Commission, which shall forward it to the designated authorities of the
other Member States and to the International Register of PotentiallyToxic Chemicals (IRPTC).
The Commission shall assign a reference number to each notification
received and communicate it immediately to the designated authoritiesof the Member States. It shall periodically publish a list of thesereference numbers in the Official Journal of the European Communities ,
stating the chemical concerned and the third country of destination.
Until areleva nt reference number is published in the Official Journal of
the European Communities , the exporter shall assume that such an
export has not previously taken place unless he can obtain from thedesignated authority of the Member State in which he is established therelevant reference number previously assigned by the Commission.
2. The designated authority of the relevant Member State shall inform
the Commission as soon as possible of any significant reaction from thecountry of destination. The Commission shall ensure that the otherMember States are informed as soon as possible of that country's
reaction.
3. For every subsequent export of the chemical concerned from the
Community to the same third country, the exporter shall ensure that the
export is accompanied by reference to the number of the notification
either published in the Official Journal of the European Communities or
obtained by it from the designated authority of the Member State inwhich he is established pursuant to the fourth subparagraph of paragraph1.
4. New notification according to paragraph 1 must be given for
exports which take place subsequent to major changes to Communitylegislation concerning the marketing and use or labelling of the
substances in question or whenever the composition of the preparation
in question changes to such an extent that the labelling of suchpreparation is altered. The new notification must comply with therequirements set out in Annex III and must indicate that it is a revisionof a previous notification. Information to the effect that a newnotification is needed shall be published in the Official Journal of the
European Communities .
The Commission shall send new notifications to the designated national
authorities of countries which have received notification of the export1992R2455 — EN — 22.01.1995 — 002.001 — 5
▼B
from the Community of the substance or preparation in question in the
six months prior to the relevant changes to Community legislation.
5. As regards the transmission of information within the meaning of
paragraph 1, the Member States and the Commission shall take account
of the need to protect the confidentiality of data and ownership in both
the Member States and the countries of destination.
The following shall not be regarded as confidential:
— the names of the substance;
— the names of the preparation;— the names of substances in Annex I contained in the preparation and
their percentage in the preparation;
— the names of the main impurities in the substances in Annex I;— the name of the manufacturer or exporter;
— information on the precautions to be taken, including the category of
danger, the nature of the risk and the relevant warnings;

— the country of destination.
Article 5
Participation in the international notification and ‘prior informed
consent’ (PIC) procedure
1. The Commission shall notify the competent bodies dealing with
the international PIC procedure of the chemicals which are banned or
severely restricted in the Community (Annex I). It shall provide allrelevant information, especially on the identity of the chemicals, theirdangerous properties, Community labelling requirements and necessaryprecautionary measures. It shall also identify the relevant control actionsand the reasons for them.
2. The Commission shall forward forthwith to the Member States
information which it receives regarding chemicals subject to the PIC
procedure and the decisions of third countries regarding the impositionof bans or import conditions on these chemicals. The Commission shallevaluate in close cooperation with the Member States the risks posed bythe chemicals. The Commission shall take its decision, including interim
decisions, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 21 of
Directive 67/548/EEC. It shall then inform the IRPTC whether importinto the Community of each ot the chemicals is allowed, prohibited orrestricted.
When such a decision is taken, the following principles shall be
observed:
(a) in the case of a substance or preparation banned by Community
legislation: import consent for the banned use shall be refused;
(b) in the case of a substance or preparation severely restricted by
Community legislation: import consent shall be subject to condi-tions; the appropriate conditions shall be decided on a case by casebasis;
(c) in the case of a substance or preparation not banned or severely
restricted by Community legislation: import consent shall notnormally be refused; however, if the Commission, in consultationwith Member States, considers that a proposal should be made to theCouncil to ban or severely restrict a substance or preparation not
produced in the Community, interim import conditions, set on aca se
by case basis, may be imposed until the Council has taken a decisionon the proposed severe restriction or permanent ban.
In the case of a substance or preparation banned or severely restricted by
legislation of one or more Member State, the Commission shall, at thewritten request of the Member State concerned, prepare its decision on1992R2455 — EN — 22.01.1995 — 002.001 — 6
▼B
the reply to be made to the IRPTC, taking into consideration that
Member State's bans or severe restrictions.
The Commission shall, whenever practicable, make use of existing
Community procedures and shall ensure that the response does notconflict with existing Community legislation.
3. Annex II shall comprise the following:
(a) the international list of banned and severely restricted chemicals
subject to the PIC procedure established by the UNEP and FAO;
(b) a list of the countries participating in the PIC scheme;
and
(c) the decisions of these countries (including the Community Member
States) regarding the import of the chemicals listed in (a) above.
The Commission shall immediately notify the Member States of
information which it receives regarding changes to the above. It shallperiodically publish these changes in the Official Journal of theEuropean Communities.
4. The exporter shall be required to comply with the decision of the
country of destination participating in the PIC procedure.
5. If a participating importing country does not make a response or
responds with an interim decision which does not address importation,the status quo with respect to imports of the chemical should continue.This means that the chemical should not be exported without the explicit
consent of the importing country, unless it is apesticide which is
registered in the importing country or is achemica l the use orimportation of which has been allowed by other action of the importingcountry.
Article 6
Infringements
Member States shall take appropriate legal or administrative action in
the event of infringement of the provisions of this Regulation.
Article 7
Packaging and labelling
1. Dangerous chemicals which are intended for export shall be
subject to the measures on packaging and labelling established pursuantto Directive 67/548/EEC or, as appropriate, of other Directives covering
dangerous preparations(
1) as are applicable in the Member State from
which the goods are to be exported or in which they have beenproduced. This obligation shall be without prejudice to any specificrequirements of the importing third country. The label need comply withthe requirements of the importing third country only if such
requirements ensure that the label has all the health, safety and
environment-related information which Community use would require.
2. The information on the label shall as far as practicable be given in
the language(s), or in one or more of the principal languages, of the
country of destination or of the area of intended use.
