Submit a dispute claim

Before you start filling in the webform, make sure you have the following information at hand:

  1. Your inquiry or pre-registration number (06-XXXXXXXXXX-XX-0000 / 05-XXXXXXXXXX-XX-0000 / 17-XXXXXXXXXX-XX-0000).
  2. Your contact details and contact details of the other party.
  3. Records of the documentation (.zip file or .pdf document):
    • correspondence with the other party demonstrating the efforts made to reach an agreement;
    • communication informing the other party about lodging a dispute at ECHA.

After submitting the webform, you will receive an automatic email confirmation

Note that after 31 December 2019 you can only submit a data sharing dispute under Article 27 of REACH. In principle, you should submit an inquiry before submitting a data-sharing dispute to ECHA.

In case you want to have access to the joint submission without permission to refer to the data submitted by other registrant(s) in order to submit a full opt-out registration dossier, please see https://echa.europa.eu/regulations/reach/registration/data-sharing/joint-submission-of-data.

ECHA encourages you to continue negotiating even after you have filed a dispute, as an ECHA decision will not satisfy any party to the dispute in a way that a voluntary agreement would.
