Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Switzerland sits outside EU REACH. Chemicals are regulated under the Chemicals Ordinance (ChemO), and the joint Notification Authority for Chemicals, run by FOPH, FOEN and SECO, handles notifications and the Swiss product register. APIs are imported by Swissmedic-licensed companies, which must verify the GMP status of their suppliers. Indian-origin goods that qualify can claim India–EFTA TEPA preferences with a valid proof of origin. Dangerous goods travel under IMDG, ADR/RID or IATA rules depending on the transport leg.

Questions

Lab Reagents for Switzerland

Can Zemixal deliver lab reagents to Switzerland?

Yes. We ship by sea to Rotterdam (via Rhine barge/rail to Basel) and Genoa (via rail), by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.

Which documents come with a lab reagents shipment to Switzerland?

Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to FOPH / FOEN (Chemicals Ordinance, ChemO) is agreed with you at quote stage.

How long does delivery to Switzerland take?

Allow 22–30 days for ocean transit or 3–5 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.

How do I tell AR, GR and ACS grades apart when ordering?

AR and GR are trade grades meaning analytical reagent quality, with assay and impurity limits set by the manufacturer. ACS grade follows the specifications published by the American Chemical Society for that compound. The grade you receive is printed on the label and on the lot COA, so you can check it against your method before use.

Can I combine reagents from several sub-categories in a single order?

Yes. Add salts, titrants, indicators and standards to the quote panel from any product page and send them together. We consolidate them into one shipment where the hazard classes allow it, which keeps freight, documentation and customs clearance simpler for your receiving team.
