INTERVIEW
Interview Vol. 3 | China Cosmetic Animal Testing Exemption: What’s the Impact? Any Possibility for Post-market Animal Testing?
May 25, 2021
In the past, China required all imported cosmetics to conduct animal testing, which prevented many overseas companies from entering China through general trade. Eventually on May 1, 2021, China exempted mandatory animal testing for imported general cosmetics. This is definitely a great news for overseas companies, but there are also certain thresholds. ChemLinked invited Joanna, the senior regulatory consultant from REACH24H, to talk about the thresholds and impact of animal testing exemption in China.
