On March 31, 2022, South Korea's Ministry of Environment (MoE) published the updated list of pre-registered substances under K-REACH. So far, a total of 212,992 pre-registration applications were submitted for 17,263 chemical substances, of which 76 are CMR substances. About 9% of the pre-registered substances are manufactured or imported over 1,000 tonnes per year.
For each pre-registered existing chemical substance, the MoE provides information including
KE number, CAS number and chemical name;
number of applications for pre-registration;
the maximum tonnage band (1-10t/y: 6,768 substances; 10-100t/y: 5,748 substances; 100-1000t/y: 3,162 substances; Above 1000: 1,585 substances);
if it is a CMR substance;
if consumer uses apply; and
hazard classification information.
The Ministry of Environment urges the stakeholders involved with existing chemical substances to speed up the registration work before the end of grace period.
