EU/UK Cosmetics Regulatory Services
Ensure the safety of your products in the European Union and in the United Kingdom with the help of EcoMundo regulatory experts.
How are cosmetics regulated in the EU/UK?
Cosmetics in the European Union (EU) are regulated under a comprehensive framework known as the EU Cosmetics Regulation (Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009). The United Kingdom (UK) also adopted similar regulations while it was still a member of the EU, and after Brexit, it developed its own regulatory framework known as the UK Cosmetics Regulation.
The cosmetics regulations in the EU and UK are among the most stringent in the world. To navigate this complex regulatory landscape successfully, it is highly recommended to collaborate with local regulatory experts who possess in-depth knowledge of the evolving requirements, registration processes, and compliance standards.
