Dangerous goods required information and documentation (hazmat)

The text you provided contains detailed information regarding the requirements for listing products containing dangerous goods, including batteries and products regulated as dangerous goods, on Amazon's Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA) platform in the UK. Here's a summary of the key points:

**New Listings:**

- When creating or converting a listing for FBA, you must include dangerous goods information for both batteries and products regulated as dangerous goods.

- For batteries, you need to provide information such as battery type, battery weight, cells per battery, lithium battery packaging, and watt-hours per battery.

- For products regulated as dangerous goods, you need to indicate the type of dangerous good, UN number, product weight, product volume, and categorization/GHS pictograms.

- Safety data sheets (SDS) or exemption sheets may be required after listing creation. These documents help ensure compliance with regulations.

**Existing Listings:**

- Existing listings converted to FBA may be reviewed by the Dangerous Goods team.

- Products with complete and correct dangerous goods information will be reviewed and classified within two business days.

- Incomplete, inaccurate, or conflicting information may result in the product being blocked for sale through FBA.

- Safety data sheets (SDS) or exemption sheets may be required for existing listings.

**Safety Data Sheets (SDS):**

- An SDS describes a product's physical and chemical properties, hazards, precautions, and more.

- SDS helps Amazon determine if products are regulated as dangerous goods and how they should be classified.

- To be compliant, an SDS must be created or updated within the past five years and match the product listing.

**Exemption Sheets:**

- Exemption sheets are accepted for certain categories, such as battery and battery-powered products or products without harmful chemicals.

- Exemption sheets must be filled out completely and correctly.

**UK Requirements:**

- As of January 1, 2021, an amended version of the EU Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals regulation (REACH) applies to the sale of chemicals and their safe use in the UK (England, Scotland, and Wales).

**Northern Ireland Protocol:**

- Different rules apply in Northern Ireland due to the Northern Ireland Protocol.

- Products must meet applicable EU REACH and CLP requirements in Northern Ireland.

**Brexit Guidance on Chemicals:**

- The UK government offers guidance on the sale of chemicals in the UK and Northern Ireland post-Brexit, covering areas like REACH, CLP, biocides, prior informed consent, and pesticides or plant protection products.

Amazon emphasizes the importance of providing accurate and complete information to ensure compliance with regulations and avoid delays in processing. It also mentions that if requested documentation is not provided within a specified timeframe, inventory may be disposed of at the seller's expense.

Sellers are encouraged to refer to official guidance provided by the UK government for further details on chemical regulations.
