Guidance on Data Sharing

Data Sharing

 A new aspect of the Biocidal Products Regulation is the common obligation for existing data owners and prospective applicants, to share certain data from tests and studies on biocidal active substances and products submitted to EU authorities. By doing this, the applicants for active substances or biocidal products can reduce costs and avoid unnecessary testing.

Prospective applicants have an obligation to find out which tests and studies are already available, by submitting an inquiry through R4BP to ECHA. The Agency will provide the contact details of the corresponding data submitters.
