02 · Legal status

Where H330 is current

GHS is a United Nations model text, revised every two years, and each jurisdiction adopts a revision on its own timetable. A code can be legally current in one system and deleted in another — that is normal, not an error.

03 · On a label

H330 also appears combined

CLP Annex III defines combined hazard statements as single label elements. H330 is a component of 3 of them — this is how you will actually see it printed. The combinations have no pages of their own: a plus sign in a URL has to be encoded and breaks in other people's links and in analytics.

Code	Combined statement
H300+H330	Fatal if swallowed or if inhaled. CLP verbatim: Fatal if swallowed or if inhaled
H310+H330	Fatal in contact with skin or if inhaled. CLP verbatim: Fatal in contact with skin or if inhaled
H300+H310+H330	Fatal if swallowed, in contact with skin or if inhaled. CLP verbatim: Fatal if swallowed, in contact with skin or if inhaled

04 · Substances

Substances carrying H330

Every entry whose harmonised CLP Annex VI classification includes this hazard statement. Substances with a reference page here open on this site; the rest open on ghssymbols.com. Of these, 18 are group entries such as “salts of picric acid” or “beryllium compounds” — Annex VI gives them no CAS number, so they are listed by Index No and have no page of their own.
