PIC / e-OBK Notification
Under e-OBK / Prior Informed Consent, we manage annual reporting, export and transit notification processes in line with Rotterdam PIC procedures.
What is Prior Informed Consent (PIC)?
Prior Informed Consent (PIC) requires information sharing in the international trade of hazardous chemicals to protect human health and the environment. It implements Rotterdam Convention PIC procedures nationally.
What are the obligations?
- Determine OBK scope and obligations
- Identify banned or restricted substances
- Annual reporting (Annex 1 and Annex 2 chemicals)
- First-export and transit notifications
- Manage export / import permit and notification processes
How the process works
- Prepare information exchange and notifications
- Execute prior informed consent (PIC) steps
- Track importing-country review and decisions
- Manage annual reports and deadline calendars
How we support you
We turn OBK from a complex notification chain into one tracking system for substance lists, deadlines and e-OBK steps—clarifying export–import actions with expert chemical assessment.
What you gain
- Clarity on PIC and e-OBK obligations
- Fewer missed annual report and notification deadlines
- Earlier visibility of banned / restricted substance risk
- Safer progress in international trade processes
