China Cosmetic Regulatory Services
China NMPA Cosmetic Filing & Registration
We manage the full NMPA filing and registration process for general and special cosmetics, covering everything from cosmetic notifications and product registrations to compliance projects. Our experts handle dossiers, safety assessments, claims review, and submissions to ensure full regulatory approval. We also track post-registration changes and safety updates to keep you compliant at every stage.
China Responsible Person Services
As your appointed responsible person, we provide complete legal representation and interface directly with Chinese authorities. We manage your certificates, and serve as your trusted agent for all ongoing filings and quality oversight.
China Compliant Cosmetic Ingredients
Whether navigating CIC filings or registering new cosmetic ingredients, Cisema helps you align with NMPA’s safety, efficacy, and usage requirements to secure and maintain market access in China. We handle CIC and Annex 14 submissions, register new raw materials, manage testing at NMPA-approved labs, and ensure your ingredients meet all CSAR safety and technical standards. From classification to post-market monitoring, Cisema keeps your cosmetic ingredients compliant and market-ready.
Cosmetic Testing Services
Ensure your cosmetic products meet CSAR standards with mandatory testing in NMPA-accredited Chinese labs. We coordinate microbiological, chemical, toxicological, and efficacy testing, including stability, preservative challenge, and packaging compatibility tests. Our experts use approved methods and advanced analytics to support safe, compliant product registration and filing.
Quality Compliance Services
Get NMPA inspection-ready with our China-adapted GMP and QMS support. We review your quality management system, draft compliant SOPs in Chinese, align your labeling and packaging, and close gaps before market entry. From lifecycle compliance to adverse event reporting, we help you meet all CSAR quality control requirements.
China Cosmetic GMP Audits
Our regulatory consulting services include site assessments, evaluation of manufacturing processes for regulatory compliance, gap analyses, and pre-inspection audits to help manufacturers meet Chinese GMP standards. We assist with compliance documentation and management of corrective actions to support a successful outcome.
Cosmetovigilance Services
We ensure full compliance with post-market surveillance requirements under CSAR by supporting manufacturers with the monitoring, evaluation, and reporting of adverse reactions. We design and implement tailored cosmetovigilance systems, classify risks, and submit structured reports to the NMPA within regulated timeframes. Our team conducts trend analysis, manages documentation, and offers internal training to increase regulatory awareness. With real-time monitoring of NMPA’s adverse event database and fast response mechanisms, Cisema helps safeguard consumer health and supports the continued market presence of your cosmetic products.
Our specialist PMS team means you stay up to date with the many aspects of compliance.
Taiwan Cosmetic Regulatory Services
Taiwan Cosmetic Notification & TFDA Compliance
Cisema supports cosmetics companies through the full TFDA notification process, including ingredient checks, INCI harmonization, and system submissions for all cosmetic products under Taiwan's unified notification system*. We help classify your products, verify technical documents, and prepare a compliant Product Information File (PIF), which is mandatory for all cosmetic products and must be maintained on-site for TFDA inspection.
*Note: Effective July 1, 2024, Taiwan’s TFDA implemented a unified cosmetic notification system. PIF requirements are being phased in, with full compliance for all cosmetic products by July 1, 2026. Discover more on our Taiwan Cosmetics Page.
Taiwan Responsible Person Representation
Foreign cosmetic product manufacturers must appoint a local responsible person to manage the notification process and engage with the TFDA. Cisema serves in this role, ensuring legal accountability and proper document management, while keeping your products compliant and ready for sale.
Product Labeling & Packaging Compliance
Our cosmetic regulatory consultants perform detailed label reviews to ensure your outer and inner packaging aligns with Taiwan’s fair packaging and labeling rules. We confirm conformity with ingredient disclosures, efficacy claims, warnings, shelf life, and country of origin.
Post-Market Surveillance & Compliance Maintenance
After approval, we continue to provide regulatory support to help you monitor safety, update PIFs, revise labeling, and respond to TFDA actions. We manage product changes, safety reports, and notify authorities of adverse events, helping you comply with ongoing responsibilities.
