The term ‘absolute ethanol’ in this Annex has the same meaning as the term ‘absolute alcohol’ used by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
In all Member States, any dye may be added to the denatured alcohol to give it a characteristic colour, making it immediately identifiable.

The common denaturing procedure for completely denatured alcohol employed in Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Hungary, Malta, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia and Finland:
Per hectolitre of absolute ethanol:
II. An increased concentration of the common denaturing procedure for completely denatured alcohol, employed in the following Member States:
The United Kingdom.
Per hectolitre of absolute ethanol:
Croatia
Per hectolitre of absolute ethanol:
A minimum of:
Sweden
Per hectolitre of absolute ethanol:
III. Additional denaturing procedures for completely denatured alcohol employed in certain Member States:
Czech Republic
Per hectolitre of absolute ethanol:

Only low quality alcohol (heads and tails from distillation), with an alcoholic strength of at least 93 % volume and not exceeding 96 % volume can be denatured.
Per hectolitre of hydrated alcohol of 93 % volume, the following substances are added:
At a temperature of 20 °C, the end product will reach, in its unaltered state, 93 % volume.
Finland – authorised until 31.12.2018
