When will the EU PFAS ban apply?

421 questions from 58 articles available in English.

The universal restriction of PFAS under REACH has not been adopted. The final opinion of ECHA's Committee for Socio-economic Analysis is expected at the end of 2026; the Commission then has 3 months to propose a text, which the Member States vote on and the European Parliament and the Council then scrutinise for 3 months. With an 18-month transition, the first bans would not apply before 2029.
