Apply to have your product listed
This is a voluntary scheme and is open to any disinfectant manufacturer wishing to market their product in the UK.
It lists disinfectants that have been independently validated as effective against viral and bacterial diseases affecting freshwater fish.
To apply to get your disinfectant listed you must:
- have your product tested by a qualified laboratory
- complete and submit the Disinfectant Aquaculture Rate Card
- complete and submit the Disinfectant Aquaculture Application Form
Get your disinfectant tested
All products submitted for listing must meet the requirements of the EU Biocides Regulation (528/2012) and national biocides legislation.
Before applying you must ensure your product has passed the modified test standards below (depending on your application):
- bacterial diseases – using the specified modification of EN Standard 1656:2019
- viral diseases – using the specified modification of EN Standard 14675:2015
You must:
- select a laboratory that works to a recognised international laboratory quality system
- have quality assurance checks done by an independent auditor
Application fees
You can apply to have your disinfectant listed as effective for 1 disease type (bacterial or viral diseases) or for both.
You must pay for each disinfectant product you wish to list and choose either:
- a single scheme application (viral or bacterial efficacy) – £2,095 (excluding VAT)
- a combined application (viral and bacterial efficacy) – £2,591 (excluding VAT)
Please note that fees are non-refundable for unsuccessful applications.
Approval process
The Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas) manages the process.
- Cefas will acknowledge receipt of the application within 5 working days.
- Upon payment of fees, Cefas will submit the application for a technical assessment.
- Cefas will receive the results of the technical review within 20 working days.
- Cefas will inform you of the outcome of your disinfectant listing application within 5 working days as a pass or fail. If successful you must sign and return the terms and conditions of the listing scheme. If unsuccessful Cefas will inform you of the reasons why and the next steps.
- Cefas will update the listing site to include your product with 7 working days of a successful application.
Renewals and changes to your product
Each listing is valid for 5 years. You must then reapply to continue to be listed. However, retesting is not always necessary if your disinfectant’s composition hasn’t changed.
If you change your product’s composition you should notify Cefas immediately. Product changes require a retest and you must then reapply for listing.
If you wish to add distributors for your listed products you need to apply for an amendment using the same application form (omit section 3 and the appendices). There is no charge to do this.
The disinfectant listed and sold must be identical to the original sample tested and reviewed.
