Only the DIW “Preliminary of Thailand Existing Chemicals Inventory” is available Contains information of sub-list No. 5.1, 5.4, and 5.5 only from the year 2012 - 2015 Chemical information data from DIW online consultation results with actual production/ import data will include in the chemical inventory but the DIW will verify the data before input in the inventory (criteria is under consideration)
Year Action plan
2018: DIW launch the online for the registration of hazardous substance Type 2, 3 and licensing
2019: E-licensing 2020: (or later) Thailand Existing Chemicals Inventory (TECI)
The Hazardous Substance Act (No. 4), B.E. 2562 (2019)
(will come into force on October 27th, 2019)
Key points:
Have clear definitions of import, export, transit, re-import, re-export, etc. For each transit of type 1,2 shall be declared to authority, and type 3 need permission. Not the same process as the import to such a substance Set up the criteria and rules for the transit Set the rules to waive for the “re-import”/ “re-export” of hazardous substance The transit license shall valid not over than 45 days (previously 90 days). The company must be a local entity The transit shall be sent out from the port within 5 days after the custom inspection. Regulate activities related to product advertising and sale promotion Definition of liability and compensation regarding any damages occurring from chemical products Adjustment of Hazard Substance committee (17 from gov. authorities and 12 max. from external experts) to enhance and streamline requirements in the processing of license and permit, chemical managements, etc. Link (in Thai): http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2562/A/056/T_0231.PDF

Draft of new chemical regulation: “Chemical Act”
FDA organized the seminar on 26 April 2019 The 1st draft for public hearing: 26 April 2019 (comments can be submitted until 7th June 2019) By: Sub-committee on the chemical substances law development, consist of;
Crop Protection Association (TCPA)
(PHDF), and Thai Pesticide Alert Network(Thai-PAN)
12
Draft of new Chemical Act
Covers substance, mixture, and article Chemical management process; The draft covers the entire chemical life cycle – from produce, import, export, transport, transit, re-import, re-export, having in possession, sales, use, treatment, and disposal of chemical substances and mixtures, as well as to recycling

Chemical lists under the new Chemical Act
The Chemical Assessment Committee (CAC) will classify chemicals present in the Chemical Inventory according to their risks posed to health and environment, and divide them into 3 lists:
List 1: Enterprises must comply with criteria and conditions impacting produce, import, export,
transit, re-import, re-export, having in possession, sales, transport, use, treatment, disposal or recycling issued by competent authority. This includes the current “low-risk chemicals” with regards to health and environment;
List 2: Enterprises must obtain licensing from competent authority. This includes the “high-risk
chemicals” with regards to health and environment;
List 3: All activities are prohibited. However, certain chemicals, such as those used for R&D
purposes, or chemicals where contamination at use is unavoidable but that are less dangerous may be exempted Note: currently, only the Prelimianary Thailand Existing Chemical Inventory is available!!

Full assessment Simple assessment Q: When to decide to perform CHRA or SiRAC*? not for foreign supplier A: Assessor can choose to perform assessment by using CHRA or SiRAC. However, SiRAC is not applicable to chemical classified as CMR and are only applicable for chemical in solid and liquid form. *SiRAC: an alternative approach of chemical health risk assessment and may be conducted if the chemicals hazardous to
health is listed in the chemical register; and not classified as carcinogenicity cat. 1, mutagenicity cat 1 or 2, or respiratory sensitization cat 1
