We've written extensively about ISK registrations or the Slovenian Information System for Chemicals. This time, I would like to explain the basics of ISK reporting.
The legal basis for reporting chemical data in Slovenia is Article 35 of the Chemicals Act and the Regulation on Reporting Chemical Data.
The Chemicals Office oversees the production, distribution, storage, and use of hazardous chemicals and maintains a list of chemicals on the Slovenian market. This list includes information on chemicals (substances and mixtures) classified as hazardous, including safety data sheet information, type and use of chemicals, and annual quantities.
Information about hazardous chemicals must be reported by a legal entity or sole proprietor who manufactures chemicals in Slovenia or imports them into Slovenia for professional use, including direct use in their own production.
The result of ISK registration is obtaining a notification number.
The Regulation on Reporting Chemical Data mandates electronic data reporting using the ISK web application. This application can be used by all obligated parties. An obligated party can also authorize another legal entity to report data electronically on their behalf. In this case, the obligated party must complete and send a form to the Chemicals Office for reporting chemical data using the web application.
Many companies have already authorized us to handle reporting on their behalf. We actively remind them of their obligations regarding:
- registering new hazardous chemicals,
- updating old registrations,
- cancelling registrations for chemicals no longer on the market.
If you're unsure whether your registrations are properly managed, feel free to email me at simona.miklavcic@bens-consulting.eu, and I'll be happy to help you sort out your ISK obligations.
