Miljøstyrelsen — the Danish Environmental Protection Agency

Miljøstyrelsen is Denmark's environment and chemicals authority — the national counterpart for REACH, restrictions and environmental product rules.

What it is

Miljøstyrelsen (the Danish Environmental Protection Agency) is Denmark’s authority for chemicals and the environment. It administers and enforces chemical rules nationally, supports REACH and CLP implementation, and handles environmental product obligations.

Why it matters for compliance

The chemical layer catches most consumer goods, and Miljøstyrelsen is the Danish authority behind it — the national body for REACH-related enforcement, substance restrictions and environmental requirements. For a brand selling in Denmark, it is the counterpart to ECHA at national level for chemicals and environmental questions.

How to use it

  • Use its guidance on chemical rules and restrictions as they apply in Denmark.
  • Treat it as the Danish authority for REACH/CLP enforcement and environmental product duties.
  • Pair it with ECHA for the EU-level lists and databases.

Good to know

Chemical compliance is a supply-chain data problem first — knowing your product’s composition is what lets you answer to authorities like Miljøstyrelsen.
