Service decision and evidence guide
The acquired REACH Article 8 permits specified non-Community manufacturers, mixture formulators and article producers to appoint an only representative by mutual agreement. The task is to define the substance and supply chain covered, relevant importer obligations and maintained quantities/customer information. A CAS match alone cannot decide the complete obligation.

Sourced criteria · EU
| Decision or task | What the source describes | What to prepare |
|---|---|---|
| Which overseas actor is appointing? | Article 8(1) specifies substance manufacture, mixture formulation or article production outside the Community and an appointed person established in the Community. [1] | Identify the actual appointing activity and legal entity rather than assuming any reseller can use this provision. |
| Which substances and imports are covered? | The representative fulfils the importer obligations under the specified Title and complies with other importer obligations under paragraph 2. [1] | Map substance identity/composition, mixture/article context, volume and importers before settling registration or other work. |
| What information stays current? | Paragraph 2 specifies practical substance background and current information on quantities, customers and supply of the latest safety-data-sheet update. [1] | Agree who supplies each update, how quantities are reconciled and how evidence is accessed. |
| What changes for the covered importers? | Paragraph 3 requires the non-Community manufacturer to inform importers in the same supply chain; those importers are regarded as downstream users for the purposes of REACH. [1] | Define the covered supply chain and evidence of notification; do not imply that unrelated imports are covered. |
Substance identity, use, volume, exemptions and applicable registration/restriction provisions remain incomplete. Article 8 alone does not establish that a substance is registered or compliant.
