如果非欧盟单体生产商已在非欧盟供应链上游指定了 OR，但该 OR 不愿承担 REACH 第 8 条规定的聚合物进口商的法律责任，那么聚合物进口商（或非欧盟聚合物制造商指定的 OR）的义务是什么？

如果非欧盟单体生产商已在非欧盟供应链上游指定了 OR，但该 OR 不愿承担 REACH 第 8 条规定的聚合物进口商的法律责任，那么聚合物进口商（或非欧盟聚合物制造商指定的 OR）的义务是什么？

What are the obligations of polymer importers (or ORs appointed by non-EU polymer manufacturers), if an OR has already been appointed by the non-EU monomer producer up the non-EU supply chain, but this OR does not want to take on the legal responsibility envisaged in Article 8 of REACH for the polymer importers?

就聚合物进口而言，REACH第6(3)条规定的“已在供应链上游注册”的条件，只有在非欧盟供应链上游指定的OR（例如，非欧盟单体制造商的OR）决定将聚合物进口也纳入其注册范围（即，将相关数量纳入其注册范围并承担REACH第8(2)条和8(3)条规定的义务）的情况下才能得到满足。如果非欧盟单体制造商的OR决定不对这些数量承担法律责任，则聚合物进口商不能依赖注册豁免，而有义务注册其进口的单体数量。或者，非欧盟聚合物制造商指定的OR可以代表聚合物进口商进行注册。

In the case of polymer imports, the condition "have already been registered up the supply chain" in Article 6(3) of REACH can only be fulfilled if an OR appointed up the non-EU supply chain (e.g. the OR of the non-EU monomer manufacturer) has decided to also cover the polymer imports with their registration (i.e. by including the volumes concerned in their registration and taking over the obligations in Article 8(2) and 8(3) of REACH). If the OR of the non-EU monomer manufacturer decides not to take legal responsibility for these volumes, the polymer importer cannot rely on the exemption from registration and is obliged to register the volumes of monomer they import. Alternatively, an OR appointed by the non-EU polymer manufacturer could register on behalf of the polymer importers.
