Here you will find all the relevant legislation of the European and Belgian level on subjects for which the FPS Environment (Division of Product Policy & Chemicals) is fully or partially qualified. You may inspect the acts, save and / or print. You can also search for keywords by using the search window.


For some subjects, there are shared responsibilities with other government departments. Often, they also have their own helpdesk for specific questions about this. For instance, regarding the REACH legislation and its application on eg. the preparation of safety data sheets, you can contact the Belgian REACH helpdesk of the FPS Economy (in Dutch or French). If you have complex questions about your obligations under REACH, CLP, PIC or BPR, you can in the second place always consult the helpdesk of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA).
