Amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/2865 32024R2865

applies from: unchanged

Paragraph 3 now states that the exemption from Title II classification for hazard classes or differentiations covered by a harmonised entry in Part 3 of Annex VI also extends to forms or physical states covered by that entry.

A new sentence has been added specifying that the harmonised classification applies to all forms or physical states of the substance unless an entry in Part 3 of Annex VI specifies that the harmonised classification applies only to a specific form or physical state.

The following sentence, describing when Title II classification must still be carried out, has been reworded to add coverage for a substance being in a form or physical state not covered by an Annex VI entry, alongside the previously mentioned hazard classes or differentiations.
