Chemical legislation in Switzerland

11.02.2020

The export of five particularly harmful pesticide active substances that are banned in Switzerland (atrazine, diafenthiuron, methidathion, paraquat and profenofos) will be subject to authorisation in accordance with the revised Annex to the Ordinance on Risk Reduction related to Chemicals. An export authorisation can then only be granted if the importing country has given its explicit consent.
