What it expects in the file
- Substance declarations
Safety data sheets for mixtures and supplier material declarations for articles: the trail that shows what is in the product against the restricted lists. - Technical file
The technical documentation: design, drawings, bill of materials, the standards applied, the conformity assessment route, and the evidence that the requirements are met. Kept for the retention period the regime sets, typically ten years from the last unit placed on the market.
Duties that continue after sale
- Substance list watching
Track additions to the restricted and candidate substance lists, re-check supplier declarations against them, and update customer communication and labels when a substance in the product is added.
