New type of reported introduction: 10 kg or less 

From today, eligible introductions of 10 kg or less per year can be authorised under the ‘reported’ category.  

Reported introductions of 10 kg or less have reduced reporting and record-keeping obligations compared to other reported introduction types.  

To be eligible as a reported introduction – 10 kg or less your introduction must meet the criteria in Step 3 of our 'Guide to categorising your chemical importation or manufacture’.  

We made this change following amendments to the Industrial Chemicals (General) Rules 2019. We consulted on these changes to the General Rules. You can read a summary of stakeholder feedback and our responses.
