Questions and answers on the notification of dangerous products for emergency medical care in Germany for notifiers according to Art. 45 of the CLP Regulation

Complete revision of the version dated 23 December 2020. The individual topics were regrouped and supplemented with questions from the 14th BfR user conference on product notifications.

The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) receives product notifications from industry. The BfR checks these product notifications and makes them available to the poison centres of the federal states for emergency medical advice.

Background: Chemical products are usually complex mixtures of various ingredients or components. Due to their hazard potential – especially if they are not used as intended – they can cause health risks for consumers. Persons and companies that place hazardous (chemical) mixtures on the market must provide the BfR with relevant information. The legal basis for this is Article 45 of the Regulation on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP: classification, labelling and packaging), which is enshrined in national law via the Chemicals Act (Section 16e ChemG).

The BfR has compiled frequently asked questions on the notification of hazardous products in order to answer common and selected detailed questions on the subject of product notifications quickly and transparently. Additional information can be found in the linked sources.
