As you may know, on 22 October 2025, a draft titled On Amendments to the Resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine of May 10, 2024, No. 539 and of July 23, 2024, No. 847 was published. This draft discussed the postponement of deadlines for chemical substance registration in Ukraine.
On 5 December 2025, the Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture of Ukraine (MEEA) announced on its website that related amendments had been adopted. The aim is to increase alignment between Ukrainian regulations and European standards and to provide businesses with additional time for compliance.
Key Changes and Postponements
- Products placed on the market before the CLP enters into force will be allowed to be supplied for one more year, which will also affect the deadline for C&L notification.
- New deadlines have been set for UA CLP Classification obligations:
| 15 November 2027 | substances |
| 1 May 2028 | mixtures |
- UA REACH will enter into force in stages and registration deadlines are:
| 1 October 2029 | substances >1,000 tonnes/year |
| 1June 2031 | substances between 100–1,000 tonnes/year |
| 1 March 2033 | substances between 1–100 tonnes/year |
- The pre-registration deadline has been extended to 26 January 2027.
Note: The pre-registration and C&L Notification processes are already in place and functioning. As the extensions for these steps are relatively limited, we recommend continuing to meet these obligations without delay.
Although the announcement published by MEEA states that the amendments have been adopted, it should be noted that the signed full text has not yet been released. You may follow our social media accounts or contact our team for updates on this topic.
