Safety Data Sheets for Amazon UK and EU Products
1. Introduction – Amazon SDS Requirements for UK & EU
Amazon requires sellers to provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for all regulated chemical, cosmetic, and household products listed in the UK and EU marketplaces. This requirement ensures that all substances and mixtures are handled, stored, transported, and disposed of safely in compliance with REACH and CLP legislation.
Phoenix Safety Consultants prepares fully compliant SDS documents tailored for Amazon product listings, meeting both UK REACH (SI 2020/1577) and EU REACH (Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006) obligations. Each SDS follows Annex II formatting and aligns with CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, ensuring accurate hazard classification, supplier identification, and labeling compliance.
Whether you sell cosmetics, cleaning agents, essential oils, or industrial products via Amazon FBA/FBM, our professionally authored SDS keeps your listings active, compliant, and inspection-ready.
2. Legal Framework – UK & EU SDS Requirements
SDS documentation is legally required for any product classified as hazardous under chemical, cosmetic, or household regulations. Phoenix Safety Consultants prepares SDS compliant with the following frameworks:
- UK REACH (SI 2020/1577): Governing substance registration and information requirements post-Brexit.
- EU REACH (Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006): Setting SDS format and content obligations across EU Member States.
- CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008: Defining classification, labeling, and packaging of substances and mixtures.
- Annex II of REACH (as amended by Regulation (EU) 2020/878): Establishing the mandatory 16-section SDS structure.
- Amazon Product Safety and Compliance Policy: Requiring up-to-date, REACH- and CLP-aligned SDS for regulated listings.
Our SDS are accepted by Amazon Seller Central (UK / EU) and fully satisfy REACH Annex II and GHS (Globally Harmonised System) requirements.
