By Zoesoe Exports Pvt Ltd – Your Trusted Regulatory Partner

Zoesoe Exports Pvt Ltd offers end-to-end SDS (Safety Data Sheet) Preparation and Review Services tailored specifically to meet the Namibian regulatory requirements for chemical, herbal, cosmetic, food, and industrial products. With years of experience in global regulatory support, we ensure your SDS is accurate, compliant with local standards, and ready for submission, import, or usage within Namibia.

Why SDS Is Mandatory in Namibia

Chemical safety and hazard communication in Namibia are primarily governed by the Labour Act (Act 11 of 2007) and its subsidiary Regulations relating to the Health and Safety of Employees at Work (Government Gazette 156). The responsible authority is the Ministry of Labour, Industrial Relations and Employment Creation (MLIREC).

While Namibia is advancing towards full implementation of the Globally Harmonized System (GHS), current practice relies on established occupational safety requirements for providing hazard information to employees. Best practice for international trade and for high-hazard materials strongly suggests the use of the GHS format.

A compliant SDS/Hazard Communication Document for Namibia must be:

• Format: Prepared in the internationally recognized 16-section SDS format (GHS aligned) as best practice.

• Language Specific: Written in English (the official language for business and technical communication).

• Legally Referenced: Aligned with general duties under the Labour Act 2007 regarding the provision of information on the health and safety risks of articles and substances used at work.

Zoesoe Exports ensures your documentation meets these national mandates and international best practices for chemical management.
