The list of substances concerned by the Tax on Diffuse Pollution is set by the Order of 22th Novembre 2010 and is updated every year in order to consider the evolution of substance classification.

In comparison to the list of 2020, the status of 7 substances is updated, 2 substances are withdrawn from the list because they were not approved and never marketed in France, and 3 substances are added to the list.
