Latvia follows EU REACH and CLP. Substances imported at 1 tonne or more per year need registration by the EU importer or by an Only Representative, and SDS and labels must be in Latvian. APIs require an EU written confirmation or equivalent GMP standing, and the receiving company needs an import authorisation from the State Agency of Medicines (ZVA). Sea cargo usually arrives on Baltic feeders from North Sea hubs. Customs clearance requires the importer's EORI number, and dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA rules.
