Registration/ Declaration Procedure

Registration / declaration of cosmetics is a multi-stage process that results in obtaining the Marketing Authorization:
✔ the State Registration Certificate issued by the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare (Rospotrebnadzor);
✔ the Declaration of Conformity to TR TS 009/2011.

In order to successfully launch a perfumery or cosmetic product to the Customs Union market, one needs to verify, whether a product can be registered as a perfumery or cosmetic product, to prepare and submit a registration dossier, to conduct sample testings (in the scope determined by product ingredients, route of administration, product safety and quality), to organize the import of a product to Russia (if needed) and to communicate with Rospotrebnadzor and accredited expert laboratories.
