Webinar: Know your obligations when exporting hazardous chemicals outside the EU

24 September, 11:00 EEST (GMT +3)

Planning to export hazardous chemicals outside the EU? Then you may have to comply with the PIC Regulation.

Watch our webinar to learn about the scope and main requirements of PIC, how to notify your exports and the conditions that require explicit consent from importing countries.

The webinar will be published on our home page on the day of the event at 11:00 together with a live Q&A where we will be answering your questions until 15:00. No registration is required.

You can join the Q&A directly or by going to slido.com and entering the event code: pic2020.

Survey: What information do you need on import and export of hazardous chemicals?

We want to hear your feedback on our web pages that give information on the import and export of hazardous chemicals in the EU under the Prior Informed Consent Regulation.

The aim is to understand how you use the web pages and how we can improve them with better navigation or additional information. The results of the survey will be used to develop new and improved web pages that are expected to go live in 2022. The survey is open until 30 September 2020.
