The International Uniform Chemical Information Database (IUCLID) is a software application designed to record, store, maintain and exchange data on chemicals. The ECHA develops and maintains the IUCLID software and the underlying format in collaboration with the OECD. The IUCLID implements all OECD-harmonised templates, which are harmonised formats agreed at the OECD level to facilitate structured and consistent documentation of test outputs and similar chemicals data. Since chemicals data are being submitted to the ECHA in IUCLID under Union legal acts such as Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, and Regulations (EC) No 1107/2009 and (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council, the ECHA is closely involved in the continued development of IUCLID and IUCLID implements the standard formats agreed at OECD level, it is appropriate and necessary to require the Commission and the Agencies to use IUCLID for the relevant parts of dossiers under specified Union legal acts listed in Annex I when they make the data contained in those dossiers available to the ECHA.
