Romania SDS Authoring

National Regulations Governing SDSs

Romania is a member of the European Union and as such is bound by EU regulations. Romania must comply with Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH) and Regulation (EU) 2020/878, which establishes the latest SDS format and content requirements. The classification and labeling of substances and mixtures must adhere to the CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, including its latest amendments, such as Regulation (EU) 2023/707.

Additional Regulations

Romania is fully compliant with EU chemical regulations. For more information on environment and chemical policy please refer to the Romanian Ministry of Water, Forests and the Environment.

GHS Implementation Status

Romania implements the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) through the EU REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 and the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, both of which are directly applicable in all EU member states. As of January 1, 2023, Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) in Romania must comply with Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/878, which sets the latest formatting and content requirements, aligning with the 6th and 7th revisions of GHS. Companies must ensure SDSs meet EU 2020/878 requirements, including updated hazard classification, the inclusion of Unique Formula Identifiers (UFI) for mixtures, and nanomaterial disclosures where applicable.

Multi – Jurisdiction SDS Options

It is relatively straight forward to have a single SDS for use among the countries of the European Union and European Free Trade Association, so long as it is in the necessary languages. Outside of Romania there are no countries in the EU or EFTA where Romanian is an official language. Having a single document for use in the United States and the European Union should be avoided due to significant differences between the two systems.

I am very satisfied with the work provided by Nexreg. The work has been through, timely and reasonable. Additionally, both Mike Harvey and Nazifa Beganovic are very knowledgeable. Mike and Nazifa’s efforts have been an essential part of getting our MSDS program on track and positioned for the Global Harmonized System.

We’re often asked by our clients to meet next-to-impossible deadlines, which means that we’re often forced to ask our vendors for the impossible. Working with Nexreg makes my job easier. They are experts at what they do, they pay attention to detail, and they make suggestions and offer advice – which makes us look like the experts. For regulatory compliance and translations, Nexreg ranks as one of the strategic partners we can always count on.
