China consults on GHS labelling standard
Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China (MIIT) published a plan about making a national mandatory standard -- Regulations on the Preparation of Chemical Safety Labels. They are seeking input from industries to give comments on this new draft regulation.
According to MIIT, the enforcement of regulations on the preparation of chemical safety labels will replace the current GHS labelling standard GB15258. However, it will take sixteen months to revise the standard and the new GHS labelling standard is expecting to come into force in 2024.
The current GB15258 specifies the relevant definitions, content, preparation requirements and application methods for preparing precautionary labels for chemicals in China.
