EU COSMETIC NOTIFICATION
Before your cosmetic product can be sold in the EU market, you will need to nominate a responsible person registered as an EU resident / consulting company to act on your behalf and notify the products for your brand on the EU CPNP Cosmetics portal. There will be a fee involved for their consultancy. They will provide you with their EU registered address to be used on the label and box designs for each product.
We will provide Cosmetic Safety Reports (CPSR) for each product under your brand/product name you are notifying on the EU Cosmetics Portal. The charge for this is £300 + VAT per product CPSR and will take 4 weeks to process.
