Then you need to register for all substances contained in an article, if both of the following is true:

* You plan to produce / import the substance in the article in quantities of more than 1 tonne per year
* The conditions of use of the substance are normal or foreseeable

In case you are dealing with chemicals already considered hazardous – like CMRs, PBTs or vPvBs – then you will have to register the substance, if both of the following holds true for you:

* You plan to produce / import the substance in the article in quantities of more than 1 tonne per year
* The substance is present in the article above a concentration of 0.1% w/w

You need to inform the ECHA about the following:

* Identity of producer/importer
* Registration number
* Identity of substance
* Classification of substance
* Brief description of uses of the article
* Tonnage range
