FRANCE – Public consultation: list of substances subject to the Diffuse Pollution Tax for 2027
15 October 2026
The European Commission has launched two public consultations on draft regulations to add substances or modify some entries in Annex VI to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), i.e. the harmonised classification and labelling annex.
The first draft regulation lists in its annex the concerned substances, which are those already identified as (i) endocrine disruptors, (ii) persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic, or (iii) very persistent and very bioaccumulative under the REACH, Biocidal Products (528/2012) or Plant Protection Products (1107/2009) Regulations. Entries for these substances will be added/modified in annex VI of the CLP Regulation.
The second draft regulation provides further instructions on how to classify and label these substances or mixtures containing them, through new Notes added in the tables of annex VI of the CLP Regulation.
The consultations are open until 24 November 2026.
Commission adoption is planned for the second quarter of 2027.
