What is the expiration date of chemicals?
The shelf life of chemicals is stipulated in Clause 7, Article 2 of Circular 32/2017/TT-BCT guiding the Law on Chemicals and Decree 113/2017/ND-CP guiding the Law on Chemicals issued by the Minister of Industry and Trade, as follows:
The shelf life of chemicals is a specified period for using the chemical or a batch of chemicals after which the chemical no longer retains its original properties and quality. The shelf life of chemicals is indicated by the period from the production date to the expiration date, or by showing the expiration day, month, and year. In cases where the shelf life is indicated only by the month and year, the shelf life is considered valid until the last day of the expiration month.
The above is advice on the concept of the shelf life of chemicals. For more detailed information, please refer to Circular 32/2017/TT-BCT. We hope that our advice helps resolve your concerns.
Wishing you health and success!
