The Pesticide Registration Improvement Act of 2022 (PRIA 5) requires the safety and health portions of pesticide product labels to be translated into Spanish. Beginning on December 29, 2025, product labels on restricted-use pesticide products and agricultural use products with the highest toxicity will be required to bear Spanish language translations for the health and safety sections. Following this first phase, pesticide labels must include these translations on a rolling schedule depending on the type of product and the toxicity category, with the most hazardous and toxic pesticide products requiring translation first. All pesticide labels must have translations by 2030. The translations must appear on the pesticide product container or must be provided through a hyperlink or other readily accessible electronic method. 

The new and updated resources include guidance on implementation timelines of these bilingual labeling requirements for various types of pesticide products based on their toxicity, as well as frequently asked questions and answers related to these requirements. Antimicrobial pesticide products and non-agricultural/non-RUP pesticide products may provide a link to the safety data sheets (SDS) in Spanish in lieu of including a translation or a link to the label translation. This can be done via scannable technology or other electronic methods readily accessible on the product label.
