Information requirement

Information requirements refer to the information needed in a registration dossier (see article 10 and Annexes VI to XI). These include information on inherent properties of the substance as well as some information on manufacture, use and exposure. The term is sometimes used to exclusively refer to the intrinsic properties of a substance in support of a registration. Specifically for the information requirements on inherent properties: The amount and type of information required is principally dependant on the tonnage threshold but can also be affected by other factors like its use and exposure characteristics. For substances manufactured or imported in quantities between 1 and 10 tonnes the specific information requirements can also be affected by whether the substance is classed as 'phase-in'. The standard information requirements for each tonnage band are presented in Annexes VII to X of the Regulation.
