Cosmetics Export Registration

As standard: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or air waybill, certificate of origin (Form A / FORM E / CO as applicable), MSDS/SDS, COA, full INCI ingredient list, free sale certificate, GMPC / ISO 22716 certificates and a non-animal-testing declaration. Additional documents for specific markets are available on request.

Yes, and it is free. We prepare a full English MSDS/SDS in 16-section GHS format for every product we manufacture, including transport classification for air and sea freight. See our MSDS Free service page.

Yes, more completely than most manufacturers. We can supply everything the process needs from the manufacturing side — full formula with percentages (sent under NDA directly to your safety assessor), raw-material specifications and COAs, GMP certificate, stability and challenge test data, and packaging compatibility data. We can also arrange an EU Responsible Person through our partner network if you do not have an EU entity. The CPNP notification is then submitted by the Responsible Person, and the CPSR safety report is signed by a qualified EU safety assessor.

Yes. Any cosmetic product placed on the EU market needs an EU-based Responsible Person, and the UK requires a separate UK Responsible Person, each with an address printed on the label. If you do not have your own EU or UK entity, we can arrange an EU Responsible Person and a US Agent through our partner network, so you are not blocked from launching while you set up locally.

Under MoCRA, the manufacturing facility must be registered with the FDA and each product must be listed, and a US Agent is required for foreign facilities. We can act through our partner network to arrange a US Agent for you, and we supply the facility information, full formula and safety substantiation data needed for your product listing. We can help submit all documents, and we have dedicated FDA filing assistants who are full-time staff of our factory. Note that in the US, sunscreens are regulated as OTC drugs, which is a different and stricter pathway.

We can arrange both through our partner network. A foreign facility selling into the US under MoCRA needs a US Agent, and any cosmetic placed on the EU or UK market needs a Responsible Person with an address printed on the label. Many new brands discover this requirement only after production is finished. Tell us your target markets at the enquiry stage and we will build the timeline and the label around them.

Yes. We provide the formula composition, manufacturing flow chart, GMP certificate, free sale certificate, specifications and COA, stability data and packaging artwork that BPOM requires, and we screen the formula in advance against Indonesia's banned and restricted ingredient list. We own a BPOM-qualified trading entity in Indonesia and can manage the full BPOM registration workflow on your behalf upon request. Importantly, our halal certificate is issued by Shanghai Global Halal Certification Service and is recognised by BPJPH (Halal Indonesia), which directly supports Indonesia's mandatory halal requirement for cosmetics. The BPOM registration itself must be held by an Indonesian legal entity — your local importer or a licensed registration agent.

Yes. We prepare the technical dossier for BSTI including English MSDS with formula percentages, ingredient composition table in descending order, manufacturing process, GMP and ISO certificates, free sale certificate, and label-ready INCI listing. We also remove any ingredient restricted under Bangladeshi rules before finalising the formula.

We regularly prepare documentation for Saudi SFDA and GSO conformity, Dubai Municipality product registration, Nigeria NAFDAC, Philippine FDA, Thai FDA, Vietnam MOH notification, Malaysia NPRA notification and India CDSCO. In every case the registration holder must be a local legal entity in that country; our role is to supply complete, accurate, audit-ready manufacturing documentation so your local agent's application is approved first time.

Yes, but sunscreen is the most regulated category in cosmetics and the rules differ sharply by market. The EU, ASEAN and Australia allow different UV filter lists from the US, where sunscreen is an OTC drug. SPF and UVA-PF must be measured by an accredited laboratory (ISO 24444 for SPF, ISO 24443 for UVA) on the exact final formula — an SPF number cannot be calculated or copied. Tell us your target market first and we will build the formula against the correct filter list.

Yes. We can provide a Certificate of Free Sale and have it legalised. CCPIT (China Council for the Promotion of International Trade) certification takes 7–10 working days; full consular legalisation by the destination country's embassy takes 15–45 days depending on the country. Please request it as early as possible — this is one of the most common causes of delayed customs clearance.

 

The importer or brand owner in the destination market is the legal registration holder in almost every jurisdiction — a Chinese manufacturer cannot hold a foreign product registration. What we do is supply complete and truthful technical documentation, and adapt the formula so it passes. We will tell you clearly at the enquiry stage what your market requires, so registration does not become a surprise after production.

Yes. We will build the label with the correct INCI naming and descending order, net content in the required unit, batch code and date format, PAO or expiry, warnings and precautions, allergen declarations for the EU, and space for your responsible person or importer address. You give final written approval before printing.
