Deadlines extended: Ukraine confirms timeline for UA-REACH and UA-CLP compliance
After a 30-day public consultation, a decision has been made. Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture (MEEA) has officially adopted a resolution extending several key compliance deadlines under the country’s chemical regulatory frameworks, UA-REACH and UA-CLP.
This decision provides industry with additional time to meet registration and notification obligations, reducing immediate compliance pressure while maintaining all existing requirements.
Confirmed deadline extensions
UA-CLP Notification
- Previous Deadline: 15 November 2025
- New Deadline: 6 December 2026
UA-REACH Pre-Registration
- Previous Deadline: 26 January 2026
- New Deadline: 26 January 2027
UA-REACH registration deadlines by substance type / tonnage band
| Substance type / tonnage band | Previous deadline | New deadline |
| ≥1 t/y CMR Cat. 1A or 1B, and ≥100 t/y substances very toxic to aquatic organisms | 26 Jan 2026 | 1 Oct 2028 |
| >1,000 t/y substances | 1 Oct 2026 | 1 Oct 2029 |
| 100–1,000 t/y substances | 1 Jun 2028 | 1 Jun 2031 |
| 1–100 t/y substances | 1 Mar 2030 | 1 Mar 2033 |
What this means for industry
The adoption of these extensions provides companies with:
- One additional year for UA-CLP notifications.
- One additional year for UA-REACH pre-registrations.
- Significant postponement of full registration deadlines, allowing more time for data gathering and dossier preparation.
Next steps
The resolution is now in force. Companies should update their compliance strategies to align with the new timelines and continue preparing for UA-REACH and UA-CLP obligations.
