More information
In order for a product to be permitted to remain on the market in Denmark, the deadline for submission of an application is the date of the active substance’s formal inclusion in Annex I. If a product contains several active substances, the deadline for the product is based on the date of inclusion of the most recently included active substance. Formal inclusion of the active substance takes place approximately two years after the substance is included in Annex I, giving enterprises about two years to submit an application for authorisation of their products which contain the active substance.
