REACH SVHCEuropean Chemicals Agency (ECHA)EU
Announced
Feb 4, 2026
Implementation
Jul 1, 2026
Description
ECHA’s Candidate List table page includes a transition notice stating that Candidate List regulatory information is available in ECHA CHEM and that ECHA will maintain the legacy Candidate List dataset at the current location up to date until July 2026. This affects compliance monitoring workflows (e.g., automated screening/data pulls) by signaling a change in the authoritative data access point and a defined transition window for the legacy dataset.
