SDS (Safety Data Sheet) Turkmenistan 🇹🇲
SDS (Safety Data Sheet) Preparation & Certification Services for Turkmenistan
By Zoesoe Exports Pvt Ltd – Your Trusted Regulatory Partner
Turkmenistan's regulatory landscape for chemical safety is characterized by a strong state control over imports and mandatory quality certification, reflecting its closed economy and focus on industrial and environmental protection, particularly in the oil, gas, and agricultural sectors.
While Turkmenistan is not a member of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) like its neighbors, its technical standards often reference the regional GOST framework. The provision of a comprehensive Safety Data Sheet (SDS), often referred to as the Safety Passport, is a critical component of mandatory Certification and Industrial Safety compliance.
Why SDS Is Mandatory in Turkmenistan
The requirement for detailed chemical safety documentation stems from several key national laws and administrative procedures:
Mandatory Certification (Turkmenstandartlary): The main state standards service, "Turkmenstandartlary", mandates that all imported goods must be certified as adhering to quality standards. The SDS is a fundamental technical document required by Turkmenstandartlary and Customs for the certification process of chemicals, fertilizers, and other regulated products.
Chemical Safety Law: The Law of Turkmenistan "On Chemical Safety" (2011) defines requirements for carrying out work with hazardous chemicals and mandates state registration and monitoring of chemical safety status. The SDS provides the necessary technical data to fulfill these requirements.
Industrial Safety: The Law on Industrial Safety of Hazardous Production Sites (2017) requires operators to register hazardous sites and implement controls. The SDS is essential for developing safety procedures, training, and emergency plans.
Language Requirement: Compliance with customs and local use necessitates that safety information and product descriptions be provided in the official languages.
A compliant SDS for Turkmenistan must be:
Format: The internationally recognized 16-section SDS format (GHS aligned). The content often requires alignment with GOST standards (Interstate Standards) for the technical details, as these are frequently used or referenced by Turkmenstandartlary.
Language Specific: The core document must be available in Russian for technical and official administrative purposes, and frequently accompanied by Turkmen translations of essential safety, handling, and labeling information for local circulation and worker communication.
Certification Ready: Documentation must support the application for the Certificate of Conformity issued by Turkmenstandartlary.
