Less than two months left to submit your DUIN under UK REACH

2021-08-31

DUIN UK-REACH chemical notification/registration


The 27th October 2021 deadline for submitting a Downstream User Import Notification is approaching fast.  

As a reminder, your substances are eligible for DUIN if: 

  1. They are registered under EU REACH; and  
  2. They were placed on the GB market between 1st January 2019, and 31st December 2020. 

Once your substances have been notified via DUIN, you may continue to place them on the GB-market, while postponing the registration deadline by 2, 4 or 6 years (depending on the substances’ tonnage band and hazard profile). 

Past 27th October 2021, DUIN will not be applicable anymore. This means that, to place your substances into the GB, you will first need to fully register your substances under UK REACH before you may place them on the GB market.  

As a non-GB substance manufacturer, you may not submit the DUIN yourself. Instead, you should either:  

  • Let your GB-based importer submit the DUIN; or 
  • Appoint a GB-based Only Representative to submit the DUIN on your behalf.   

Via our London office, GPC (UK) may gladly assist you as your GB-based Only Representative to meet your DUIN requirements within the above deadline!
