Exporters and importers of PIC chemicals should submit data to HSE by 31 March 2026
PIC in GB regulates the export and import of certain hazardous chemicals. PIC-listed chemicals are subject to the requirements of the GB PIC Regulation.
Companies should now provide HSE with details of the quantities (in kilograms) of PIC-listed chemicals they exported from GB or imported into GB during 2025 using the templates on HSE’s website.
Annual reporting of quantities for the preceding year is required during the first quarter of each year under Article 10 of the GB PIC Regulation.
This includes movement of PIC-listed chemicals to or from Northern Ireland (NI).
For European Union (EU) exports and imports you do not need to indicate the specific EU country, however it would be helpful if you can indicate where the movement of the chemical was to or from NI.
The following are exempt from the reporting requirement and should not be included:
- special reference identification number (RIN) requests for exports in quantities not exceeding 10kg per year to each importing country for purposes of research or analysis
- imports for research and analysis in quantities not exceeding 10kg per year from any country
For mixtures and articles, report only the quantity of PIC-listed chemical within the mixture or article.
If you did not export a particular PIC-listed chemical in 2025 for which you submitted an export notification, please respond to confirm this as a NIL return.
Please send your completed templates to ukdna@hse.gov.uk no later than 31 March 2026 and include the following details in the subject line of your email:
GB PIC - Annual Reporting - Article 10 – 2025 - company name
HSE will publish non-confidential data, anonymised and aggregated, on our website later in the year.
