K-REACH was finally passed by the National Assembly on 30 Apr 2013 as Law No.11789 (K-REACH Chempedia) and came into force on 1 Jan 2015. So far, almost all the related support documentation have been published by South Korea's Ministry of Environment (MoE), the National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER) and the Korea Chemicals Management Association (KCMA) to facilitate the smooth implementation of K-REACH.
