What is a KKDIK Registration?
Turkey’s EU REACH based KKDIK Regulation was published on June 23, 2017 and came into force on December 23rd, 2017. All companies manufacturing or importing chemical substances on their own or in mixtures as well as in articles in Turkey must submit a KKDIK registration to the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU).
The registration process will start right after the pre-registration deadline (31 December, 2020) and will end on the 31 December 2023. Under KKDIK there are no specific deadlines for tonnage bands above one tonne (1-10, 10-100, 100-1000, 1000+) per year as it’s in EU REACH.
There is a general obligation for manufacturers and importers of substances to submit a registration to the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU) for each substance manufactured or imported in quantities of one tonne or above per year.
After the deadline; No Registration, No Market.
