SDS Authoring Australia (WHS)

Selling into Australia? You need a Safety Data Sheet that meets Australian rules, not a sheet written for the US or EU. Our Australia SDS authoring service delivers a compliant 16-section SDS built to Safe Work Australia's WHS Regulations and GHS Revision 7, matched to your product and ready for Amazon Australia, distributors, importers, and workplace customers.

Why Australia Has Its Own SDS Standards

The 16-section GHS structure is global, but each region adopts it on its own terms. Australia's framework sits under the Work Health and Safety (WHS) Regulations, developed by Safe Work Australia and implemented through the states and territories. Australian SDS must follow that framework and Safe Work Australia's Code of Practice for the Preparation of Safety Data Sheets for Hazardous Chemicals, and they must be aligned with GHS Revision 7, not the older Rev. 3 that some legacy sheets still use.

In practice, that means a US OSHA sheet or an EU REACH/CLP sheet does not automatically pass in Australia. The classification rules, regulatory references, supplier details, and content elements differ enough that an off-the-shelf sheet from another market will read as non-compliant to Australian customers, importers, and workplace buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an Australia-specific SDS to sell on Amazon Australia?

Yes. Amazon Australia and Australian workplace customers expect documentation that meets Australian WHS requirements, not a US, EU, or UK sheet. The 16-section format is shared globally, but the classification rules and regulatory references differ enough that a non-Australian SDS will read as non-compliant.

What's the difference between a US/EU SDS and an Australian one?

Each region adopts GHS with its own framework. Australia uses WHS Regulations plus GHS Rev. 7, requires Australian supplier details, and references Australian schemes such as AICIS and Workplace Exposure Standards. A US OSHA HazCom sheet or an EU REACH/CLP sheet will be structured similarly but won't carry the Australian-specific content needed for compliance.

Is my product subject to GHS Rev. 7 in Australia?

Yes. GHS Rev. 7 is the current standard for SDS in Australia, and older Rev. 3 sheets that some legacy documents still follow are out of date. Any new SDS we author for the Australian market is built to Rev. 7.

Can you also author SDS for other regions?

Yes. We author region-specific SDS for the US, EU, UK, Canada, and Australia individually, and if you sell into multiple markets, our Multi-Region SDS Package covers them in one order.
