30 Nov 2021: Deadline for Australia Annual Declaration under AICIS

On July 1, 2020, the Australian Industrial Chemicals Act 2019 (a.k.a. IC Act 2019) took effect, which replaced the Industrial Chemicals (Notification and Assessment) Act 1989. The implementation of Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme (AICIS) started on the same day, replacing National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS) as an overarching regulatory framework for introduction of industrial chemicals into the country (ChemLinked news). Under the new scheme, annual declaration is still the basic post-registration obligation for chemical management in Australia.
