欧盟REACH收费法案出台

　　2008年4月16日，欧盟委员会(European Commission)正式通过《欧盟REACH收费法案》

　　“The fees and charges that will be charged for registration, evaluation and authorisation of chemicals under the new REACH registration procedures have been adopted by the European Commission and will be published shortly in the Official Journal. The basic registration fee will range from?,600 for substances produced in volumes below 10 tonnes/year, to?1,000 for those above 1,000 tonnes/year. There will be up to 90% discounts for smaller firms and 25% reduction for firms that cooperate together on registrations. The fees, which will be payable to European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), were approved by the Committee of Member State representatives in December.”

　　此次《欧盟REACH收费法案》中，规定了注册的基本费用范围：小于10吨每年的物质为1600欧元每物质，大于1000吨每年的物质为31000欧元每物质。

　　法案表示，在收费问题上，管理局会给中小企业以一定的优惠待遇。具体为，对中型企业有30%的优惠，对小型企业有60%的优惠，对微型企业有90%的优惠。

　　同时，管理局也鼓励联合注册，并对联合注册团体中的每一个体的费用作出了一定幅度的减免，联合注册可享受25%的优惠减免。

　　需要提醒国内企业注意的是，法案中规定的联合注册，其定义为REACH法规中明确定义的联合注册，是国际范围内的联合注册，是管理局鼓励的通过SIEF论坛作为平台建立起的联合注册，与国内企业所说的"联合应对REACH"完全不同。

　　中小企业(SMEs)需要通过非欧盟企业的人数、销售额、资产负债表来决定。SMEs评定与2003/361/EC一致。
