Looks to only be spray can versions.... What's already in shops and in transit out of ports can be sold, any inbound that is still on the boat is supposed to be destroyed on arrival. Rumble is the SDS is nor correct for the cans.
 
Hadn't heard that but I don't use the cans anyway. That said, I've not been able to find the SDS sheets for my bottled paints on Tamiya'ss web site either. I wanted to find out what was in their yellow capped thinner but could only find something on an independent site
 
Good money in smuggling paint across the border.

More seriously, decades ago my mother tried to track down how we were supposed to properly dispose of old house paint, because the city's Household Hazardous Waste site wouldn't accept it. No one could answer the question (and my mother was tenacious). Apparently, it came down to "Throw it in the trash, let it be buried in a landfill, and wait for it to contaminate something."
 
In my country we can't send paints thru the post - "flammable" ! We have to use a commercial carrier / delivery guy.
All paints are flammable so ban all paints ! Too many idiots running the world.
