Under the current regulatory framework, cosmetics registrants and notifiers can continue to submit a simplified version of the safety assessment report during the registration or notification process until May 1, 2025. Following this deadline, a full version of the safety assessment will be mandated. To facilitate a smooth transition, China is planning to release a set of technical guidelines.
Since the implementation of the Cosmetic Supervision and Administration Regulation (CSAR) in 2021, China has adopted a classified management approach for new cosmetic ingredients (NCIs) based on their risk levels. High-risk NCIs require registration, while low- and medium-risk NCIs can be notified through online dossier submissions, streamlining market entry. China is continually issuing new regulations and guidelines to clarify the requirements for NCI registration and notification.
