如果非欧盟供应商不愿意披露，我该如何获取有关我所进口混合物成分的信息？

How can I obtain information on the composition of mixtures I am importing, if the non-EU supplier does not want to disclose it?

尽管在某些情况下，从非欧盟供应商处获取混合物成分信息可能较为困难，但供应链中的沟通至关重要。然而，根据CLP和REACH法规，进口商需要掌握所进口混合物成分信息，才能同时遵守这两项法规。企业有责任改善其供应链中的沟通，以确保合规。告知供应商需要这些信息的原因可能会有所帮助，因为这些信息可能并不为人所知，尤其是非欧盟供应商。最终，关于附件八的义务，非欧盟供应商可以与欧盟进口商协商，自愿提交（通过位于欧盟的法人实体），并将UFI提供给实际的欧盟进口商，然后欧盟进口商将根据附件八提交自己的信息，并在成分中引用该UFI。这将保护非欧盟供应商的机密商业信息（CBI）。然而，欧盟进口商仍需遵守CLP和REACH法规下的其他义务。

Communication in the supply chain is essential although it can be difficult to obtain information on the composition of a mixture from a non-EU supplier in some cases. However, under both CLP and REACH, importers need to have information on the composition of the mixtures being imported in order to be able to comply with both Regulations. It is up to companies to improve the communication through their supply chain to ensure their compliance. It may be helpful to tell suppliers why the information is needed, which may be unknown, particularly to non-EU suppliers.Ultimately, with regards to Annex VIII obligations, the non-EU supplier may decide, in agreement with the EU importer, to make a voluntary submission (through an EU-based legal entity) and provide the UFI to the actual EU importer, who will then make their own submission under Annex VIII referring to that UFI in the composition. This would allow the protection of the confidential business information (CBI) of the non-EU supplier. Other duties under both CLP and REACH, however, will still need to be complied with by the EU importer.
