NICNAS  (National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme) officially retires on 30 June 2020 and will be succeeded by the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme (AICIS) on 1 July 2020.

On 1 July, NICNAS Business Services will be replaced by AICIS Business Services with a new web address — https://business.industrialchemicals.gov.au.

AICIS Business Services portal will include many new features and applications to help businesses to complete their transactions online, including:

• Submitting a pre-introduction report

• Applying for an assessment certificate

• Applying for protection of your confidential business information or flagging information as confidential

There are other types of applications that require you to download PDF forms, but you’ll submit these online – no more emailing, posting or faxing required.

Your NICNAS account will automatically transfer to AICIS Business Services

You can use the same login details that you’ve been using for NICNAS Business Services. To access AICIS Business Services from 1 July, use the web address above or click on the ‘Login’ button on our brand new AICIS website, which also launches on 1 July.
