Its implication with business has been deepening over the years as the cosmetic industry continues to grow and expand in Thailand.

This webinar will mainly discuss the newly revised "Cosmetic Act BE 2558(2015)", illustrating a number of key concepts and obligations while contemplating certain practical cases based on the presenter's working experiences as regulatory expert.
