ECHA consultation opened on draft recommendation to add four Candidate List substances to REACH Authorisation List (Annex XIV)

ECHA opened a public consultation on its draft recommendation to add four substances (from the REACH SVHC Candidate List) to the REACH Authorisation List (Annex XIV). Stakeholders are invited to submit comments/information by 2 May 2026. Although this is an Annex XIV pipeline step (not a Candidate List change), it is directly SVHC-relevant because Candidate List substances are the feedstock for Annex XIV recommendations; impacted companies should review uses/supply chains and consider submitting information during the consultation window.
