- Declarations Handbook
The Declarations Handbook was developed to provide clear and simple guidance for the preparation of declarations to be made by States Parties in accordance with the requirements of the Convention. The Declarations Handbook incorporates the declaration requirements of the Convention and all relevant decisions and understandings in relation to such requirements agreed upon by the OPCW policy-making organs since entry into force of the Convention. This publication updates the previous version of the Declarations Handbook, issued in November 2002.- Handbook on Chemicals
The Handbook on Chemicals was developed to facilitate the efforts of National Authorities, Customs Authorities and industry to identify individual chemicals, covered by the schedules in the Annex on Chemicals of the CWC. The Handbook on Chemicals has undergone a major revision since the previous version. The 2009 version incorporates information on all 1329 scheduled chemicals and riot control agents declared to the Technical Secretariat from 1997 until February 2009. - Most traded Scheduled Chemicals
A list of scheduled chemicals of particular interest because of their trade. Information on commercial applications and industrial uses was gathered from a variety of open sources but of course it does not cover all possible applications.- EDNA
The Electronic Declarations software for National Authorities (EDNA) has been developed in-house by the Technical Secretariat and is freely available for use by all States Parties for the creation of declarations required under Article VI. The Technical Secretariat will ensure that EDNA is kept current and updated to reflect applicable guidelines and any decisions made on the implementation of Article VI declaration requirements. To facilitate the use of EDNA, the Technical Secretariat will provide support and training to States Parties.- Scheduled Chemicals Database
The Scheduled Chemicals Database is a tool developed by the Technical Secretariat of the OPCW to facilitate the identification of scheduled chemicals by National Authorities, customs authorities, and the chemical industry for the purposes of implementing the declaration and transfer provisions of the Chemical Weapons Convention.- Declarations Requirements for Scheduled Chemicals
