Czech imports fall under EU REACH and CLP. Registration for substances at 1 tonne or more per year is held by the EU importer or an Only Representative, and SDS and labels must be in Czech. APIs need an EU written confirmation or equivalent GMP standing and must go to a SÚKL-authorised importer. Sea cargo can be cleared at Hamburg or Koper, or moved under transit with a T1 document and cleared at a Czech rail terminal, so agree the clearance point before booking.
