Introduction

The PPORD exemption allows manufacture or import of 1 tonne or more per year of a substance for production and process oriented research and development by yourself or customers without full registration. Only if the trials are successful and there is a need for commercial production or use, will a full registration be needed. This short guide has been prepared to help with PPORDs, using IUCLID and REACH-IT. The guide does not consider the functions and purpose of PPORD and when it can be used, but only covers practical issues. It is only supplementary to the official guidance; for more information on when PPORD exemptions can be used, information can be found on the ECHA website.

This guide assumes a working knowledge of IUCLID 6 and the REACH-IT system.
