Summary

In summary, EU enterprises need to be careful when they comply with China GHS because of its own special requirements. They should gain insight into China GHS standards for more detailed information. SDS and label are required in multi-fields. With more stringent supervision, China GHS is playing a more significant role in chemical business communication in China. Besides, considering vast territory of China, extra requirements may be required by local customs, local safety work department, etc. Communication with local authorities is encouraged. Enterprises should be positive to handle requirements of Chinese chemical regulations and take responsibility for accuracy of their GHS information.
