Any person who wishes to export a chemical under Annex 1 or 2 to an importing PIC Party must, for his first export in each calendar year and for each destination country, communicate the following information to the Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) no later than 30 days before exporting:9

  1. his name and address;
  2. the name and address of the importer;
