Let's talk Only Representative

Let's talk Only Representative

❗Non-EU manufacturers placing substances, mixtures or articles on the EU market must comply with REACH importer obligations. One strategic way to manage these obligations is through the appointment of an Only Representative (OR) under Article 8 of REACH. This webinar explains how the OR model works in practice, what legal and operational responsibilities it involves, and how non-EU exporters can maintain control, confidentiality, and regulatory certainty when supplying to the EU.
