当混合物进口商无法从供应商处获得有关混合物成分的相关信息时，他有哪些选择？

What are the options for an importer of a mixture when he is unable to obtain the relevant information from his supplier on the components of the mixture?

为了履行注册人的职责，位于欧洲经济区的混合物进口商必须掌握其进口到欧洲经济区的混合物的成分信息。在以前的立法中，关于物质被归类为危险品，已经存在这一义务。根据 REACH 法规，进口商至少需要知道其进口的混合物中可能超过一吨/年的所有物质的身份和百分比含量。如果非欧洲经济区供应商不愿意或不能提供所需信息，进口商有以下选择： - 确定混合物的配方师（如果与供应商不同）并直接要求其提供所需信息， - 建议非欧洲经济区配方师根据 REACH 法规第 8 条任命唯一代表， - 通过分析方法确定混合物的成分， - 寻找愿意提供混合物所有所需信息的替代供应商。

To fulfil his duties as a registrant an EEA-based importer of mixtures has to have information on the composition of the mixtures he imports into the EEA. This obligation already existed under the previous legislation as regards substances to be classified as dangerous. Under REACH, an importer needs to know at least the identity and percentage content of all substances in the mixtures he imports that could exceed the amount of one tonne/year.   If the non-EEA supplier is not willing or not able to provide the required information, the importer has the following options: - identify the formulator of the mixture (if different from the supplier) and ask him directly for the required information, - propose to the non-EEA formulator that he appoints an only representative in accordance with Article 8 of the REACH Regulation, - establish the composition of the mixture by analytical means, - find an alternative supplier who is prepared to provide all required information for the mixture.
