The Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals is promulgated by 10 ministries in accordance with Decree 591 Regulations on Safe Management of Hazardous Chemicals. It is an administrative license Catalogue which means that businesses that produce, import, distribute or use hazardous chemicals in the Catalogue are subject to license requirements (production license, operation license, safe use license, etc.)
The current Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals was issued in 2002 and contains more than 3,800 chemicals. A revised draft version was issued in 2013 and includes nearly 3,000 kinds of chemicals. Please note that the Catalogue includes both substances and mixtures. Some entries are generic entries matching a group of substances with similar hazard properties.

For many chemicals listed in the Catalogue, the State Administration of Work Safety (SAWS) will publish their GHS classifications in a separate guidance document. Companies must use the classifications given in the guidance or more severe classifications to classify their chemicals and prepare SDSs and labels.
