FRANCE: Separation of products between professional and amateur uses

The French Order of October 21, 2015 concerning the separation of “Amateur” and “Professional” products was published on 30 October 2015.

You have until 31/12/2015 to apply for the separation of your products between professional and amateur uses. All approvals will have to be in conformity from 31/12/2016 (Decree No. 2012-755 of 9 May 2012).

From this date on, products will not be authorised anymore both for professional and amateur uses. They will have different brand names and approval numbers.

The administrative reclassification application form and its instructions are available on Anses website.
