🇲🇹 Why SDS Is Mandatory in Malta
Malta directly implements all EU chemical legislation through its national legal framework, with compliance overseen by the Occupational Health and Safety Authority (OHSA) and the Public Health Regulation Department.
REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006: Sets the mandatory 16-section structure and content of the SDS (latest format via Regulation (EU) 2020/878, mandatory since January 2023).
CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008: Governs GHS-based classification, labelling, and packaging of substances and mixtures.
Language Mandate: The official languages are Maltese and English. The SDS must be provided in English or Maltese, though English is commonly accepted for industrial documentation.
Annex VIII to CLP: Mandates Poison Centre Notification (PCN) to the relevant Maltese authority, supported by the Unique Formula Identifier (UFI).
A compliant SDS for the Maltese market must be:
Prepared as per the EU Regulation (EU) 2020/878 format.
Written in English or Maltese.
Required to include the Unique Formula Identifier (UFI) for hazardous mixtures in Section 1.
PCN-ready to support mandatory submission of notification information.
