MSDS has to be revised as and when new information on the substance becomes available. To my knowledge there is no such legal requirement, at least in India, to revise the MSDS every three years. However, the organization may choose to review the MSDS at regular intervals (say every year or two years) under EMS/OHMS established as per ISO 14001 / OHSAS 18001

Also refer to an existing thread - What to do about very old MSDS Sheets ?

Some countries require by law that you update your MSDS after a certain time period, regardless whether your product has changed. In Canada, MSDSs are required to be updated every 3 years, while in Australia they have to be updated every 5 years. Countries with requirements to update MSDSs after a time period include China, Singapore, Poland, Taiwan and others.

It gets tricky when countries require you to update MSDSs when information changes, because there could be ambiguity over what constitutes a change of information that would trigger an MSDS update (e.g. change of classification as a result of new tests vs. very minor change of sentence). In China, an MSDS has to be updated within 6 months if any new information is made available. In Korea, companies have 90 days to update an MSDS if any new information is made available. In the U.S., an MSDS has to be updated within 90 days also, if any significant new information is made available, but ?significant new information? is not defined. In the EU, under REACH, an SDS has to be updated and resent within a certain timeframe if new Exposure Scenario information is made available. This further adds complexity, because the product, its hazards and classifications may be the same, but an SDS update may still be required as a result of new information from suppliers or downstream users.
