Sodium fluoride (NaF) under AICIS

NaF · 氟化钠

Status: Listed. Sodium fluoride is on the AICIS Inventory of Industrial Chemicals as a Listed Industrial Chemical. **SUSMP / Poisons Standard Schedule 6 (poison) at industrial-grade; toothpaste-grade ≤0.15% F unscheduled** (verify the current Schedule entry against https://www.tga.gov.au/access-and-supply/poisons-standard before relying). NOT on Australian Drug Control Act precursor list. NO active Australian AD/CVD case on Chinese-origin sodium fluoride. Australia has municipal water-fluoridation programs in most states (Queensland + NSW + Victoria + South Australia + Western Australia + Tasmania); structurally domestic-supplied through industrial-gas + fluorochem chain. ChAFTA preferential zero-duty applies for Chinese-origin imports. **TGA registers sodium fluoride as a therapeutic anti-caries active** (verify against https://www.tga.gov.au/).

AICIS treats sodium fluoride as a routine listed industrial chemical with **moderate hazard profile** (Acute Tox. 3 oral + STOT RE 2; SUSMP Schedule 6 at industrial-grade; toothpaste-grade ≤0.15% F unscheduled). NO active Australian AD/CVD case. ChAFTA preferential zero-duty. **TGA therapeutic anti-caries active**. Australia municipal water-fluoridation in most states.

Restrictions and conditions of use

  • NO active Australian AD/CVD case on Chinese sodium fluoride currently
  • WHS Regulation 2011 (Acute Tox. 3 oral + STOT RE 2)
  • ChAFTA preferential zero-duty applies (HS 282619)
  • SUSMP Schedule 6 at industrial-grade; toothpaste-grade ≤0.15% F unscheduled

  • **TGA therapeutic anti-caries active**

Importer obligations

AICIS registration required. Australia has municipal water-fluoridation programs in most states; structurally domestic-supplied through industrial-gas + fluorochem chain.

Required documents

  • AICIS registration certificate (annual)
  • WHS-compliant SDS (Acute Tox. 3 oral + STOT RE 2)
  • Customs entry (ICS / ABF) with HS 282619
  • ChAFTA Form CO
  • ADG 7.7 documentation for UN 1690 Class 6.1 PG III
  • TGA registration where placed as therapeutic anti-caries active

Common compliance traps

The pitfalls that have bitten importers on this lane in the past. None of these is theoretical.

  • AICIS registration must be CURRENT at customs clearance
  • SUSMP Schedule 6 at industrial-grade; toothpaste-grade ≤0.15% F unscheduled
  • NO active Australian AD/CVD case
  • ChAFTA preferential zero-duty applies
  • **TGA therapeutic anti-caries active**
  • Australia municipal water-fluoridation programs in most states
