China established its current cosmetic regulatory system in 1990, through the implementation of the Regulation for Hygienic Supervision over Cosmetic Products. Various accompanying administrative rules, safety standards and guidelines were issued by the former competent authority, the China Ministry of Health (MoH), as well as the current competent authority, the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) through a 20 year period.

Compliant Responsibility under Cosmetics Regulations in China
We have earmarked 5 Needs to Know regulatory hurdles which are key determinants for compliance and market accession:
*Pre-Market Approval
China implement a pre-market assessment system for all imported and domestically manufactured cosmetics products covering 9 categories of special uses, such as hair dye or whitening products.
*Responsible Agent
Oversea companies should appoint one competent Responsible Agent located within Mainland China to submit the pre-market application dossier for approval assessment. The Responsible Agent can be either a Chinese importer or independent third party.
*Formulation and New Ingredient
Formulation information is the key component of the application dossier, and will be intensively reviewed by the CFDA Expert Panel in the approval assessment process. Key considerations hinge on the consistency and correctness of the whole dossier. Furthermore, ingredients categorized as new in China, typically without inclusion into the IECIC, should be firstly approved prior to use in the related finished products.
*Safety Evaluation
China does not request the applicant to submit full safety evaluation reports for ingredients or finished products within the application dossier. However, the applicant should evaluate the safety of the juvenile product formulations and any ingredient with risk concerns.
*Good Manufacturing Practice
Oversea companies should prove the manufacturing process of imported cosmetics was carried out under sound quality management systems, such as ISO 22716, national regional GMP standards, or any other manufacturing quality standards and requirements adopted by the competent authority regulating cosmetic industry.
