Vietnam's Chemical Law 69/2025/QH15 requires distributors of hazardous chemicals to provide Safety Data Sheets to customers. Missing MSDS during an inspection is an administrative violation.
Export textile, garment and footwear factories are audited on MSDS availability as a baseline requirement. Missing MSDS equals a non-conformance finding during third-party assessments.
An MSDS at the point of use enables supervisors and workers to respond correctly to spills, exposures and emergencies, reducing workplace accident risk.
