China MEE Consults on Adding 7 Substances to IECSC

If adopted, these 7 chemicals will be regulated as existing chemical substances in China.

On January 10, 2025, the Chinese Ministry of Ecology and Environment (MEE) opened a public consultation on the addition of 7 substances to the Inventory of Existing Chemical Substances of China (IECSC). Comments are welcome before January 23, 2025.

Details of these substances can be accessed here, including chemical name (both in Chinese and English), CAS number or Series number, molecular formula, structural formula, etc. These 7 substances were manufactured in or imported into China before October 15, 2003, which fulfilled the supplementation criteria but missed the previous supplementation window. They are proposed to be regulated as existing chemical substances in China, and thus free from new chemical registration or notification requirements under the MEE Order No. 12.

This is the first batch of existing chemical substances that are expected to be added to the IECSC in 2025. The last update to the IECSC was made on 25 November 2024, adding 36 substances (CL news).
