Summary/Abstract: The Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 of the European parliament and the Council known as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and restriction of CHemicals) was adopted at the end of 2006 and entered in force in 2007. The implementation of the Regulation is a difficult task because of the complicated field of application that was regulated by more than 40 pieces of legislation in the past. The implementation of REACH creates difficulties for the companies and for the enforcement authorities that have to guarantee the implementation. In 2008 the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) regarding classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures was adopted. It introduced that Global Harmonized System for classification and labeling of chemicals (GHS) and made some changes in REACH. Current paper is an overview of the main problems in implementation of these regulations and gives ideas for solving of some of them based on the practical experience of the authors.
