China Existing Chemical Inventory - IECSC

Chinese Chemical Inventory of Existing Chemical Substances is IECSC, which stands for the Inventory of Existing Chemical Substances Produced or Imported in China (IECSC).

There are around 45,000 substances in IECSC. Chinese government updated this inventory on 6 Dec 2010(link). Companies can go to CRC's IECSC portal to find out whether a substance is included in IECSC or not:

 

However, more than 3300 notified substances are not included in the data base for confidentiality reasons. It is recommended that a formal enquiry be submitted to CRC to check whether a substance is new or not.

The enquiry costs around 200 RMB, around 22 Euros or 30 USD.

NEW! For substances that are not included on online IECSC data base, CIRS offers free enquiry service to confirm with CRC whether the substance has been listed in the confidential section of IECSC. This offer is limited to one substance per company only. More information about our free Chinese chemical inventory search service, please click here.

NEW! 14 May, 2012, 208 substances will be added onto IECSC. Click here.
