KKDIK regulation is a new chemical regulation being drafted by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization(MoEU) in Turkey. "KKDIK" are the first letters of REACH written in Turkish. This regulation requires companies to register all substances manufactured in Turkey or imported into Turkey with volume above 1t/y before a given deadline (Proposed deadline: 31 Dec 2018). This regulation is more similar to EU REACH regulation and may be called real "Turkey REACH" when it is published.
Currently the Regulation on the Inventory and Control of Chemicals (CICR) is also called "Turkey REACH". More info about CICR can be found here.
