Success of Pudong Imported Cosmetic Filing Management Prompts Further Development

Takehome:

The success of filing management for imported non-special use cosmetics in the Pudong area has led to the release and development of additional market access facilitation methods.

Xinhua News Agency reported that Shiseido (China) has successfully filed a record for a face cleansing product with Shanghai FDA. This is the first non-special use cosmetic approved for import using the new filing management in Pudong. Shanghai CIQ released the following guidance.

1. The designated "responsible person" should visit CIQ with electronic filing certificate and dossiers receipt to ask for inspection.
2. CIQ will conduct inspection and quarantine on samples on the spot and then examine them in the lab.
3. If samples pass testing, CIQ will issue an "Import product inspection & quarantine certificate" for this batch. It is estimated that this procedure will take 10 days.

The financial Department minister of Shiseido told that in his experience, the Pudong cosmetic filing management system significantly reduced the time required for market entry and also reduced storage costs. At REACH24h we are now proud to announce that our cosmetic technical services division can offer market access services using the Pudong filing management system to international enterprise looking to sell cosmetics in China.
