Great Britain operates UK REACH under HSE. Substances imported at 1 tonne or more per year need registration by a GB-based importer or a UK Only Representative, and labelling follows GB CLP. Northern Ireland still applies EU REACH. APIs for UK medicines must meet GMP and MHRA import requirements, including written confirmation for Indian-origin active substances. Dangerous goods travel under IMDG or IATA rules, and India–UK CETA preferences will depend on valid origin documents once the agreement is in force.
