Global Regulatory Compliance

GLOBAL REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

Global reach requires a precise local strategy.

Introducing cosmetic products to foreign markets involves navigating complex and diverse legal systems. At Natur Lab, we guide brands seamlessly through this process—from formulation adjustments and label verification to the final notification on local government portals.

Europe (EU)

The European market is governed by one of the most stringent regulatory systems in the world. We ensure your products are fully compliant with EU law.
  • Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009: Preparation of complete documentation and CPSR (Cosmetic Product Safety Report).
  • CPNP (Cosmetic Products Notification Portal): Mandatory product notification across the entire European Union prior to being placed on the market.

United Kingdom (UK)

Following the UK’s departure from the EU, the British market requires a separate regulatory pathway and the appointment of a local Responsible Person.
  • SCPN (Submit Cosmetic Product Notification): Comprehensive registration within the new UK government system.

North America (USA)

The American cosmetics market is currently undergoing its most significant reform in decades. We help brands adapt to the new, strict federal requirements.
  • MoCRA (Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act): Facility Registration, Product Listing with the FDA, and implementation of adverse event reporting systems.

Middle East

Arab markets are characterized by specific ingredient requirements (e.g., the absence of pork-derived substances, alcohol limits) as well as rigorous customs procedures.
  • KSA (Saudi Arabia): Registration and certification within the SFDA (Saudi Food and Drug Authority) system.
  • UAE (United Arab Emirates): Registration in local systems (e.g., Dubai Municipality) in compliance with ESMA requirements.

Asia

The rapidly growing Asian markets demand an excellent understanding of local directives, which often differ significantly from European standards.
  • ASEAN: Compliance with the ASEAN Cosmetic Directive (ACD) and notification in the systems of member states (e.g., Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia).
  • South Korea: Support in adapting products to the requirements of the MFDS (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety).
