GB-based downstream users of existing EU REACH authorisations

Notify HSE

If you are a GB-based downstream user of an existing EU REACH authorisation held by a UK or an EU/EEA company (the European Commission granted an authorisation decision before the end of the transition period), you can continue to rely on those authorisations if you notified HSE of their use within 60 days of the end of the transition period (submitted an Article 127H notification).

If you think you should have notified your existing downstream user status, but haven't, please contact [email protected]

If you need help with submitting monitoring information email [email protected]
