China Cosmetic Adverse Event Reporting is crucial to maintaining compliance post-notification or post-registration of your cosmetics. To assist cosmetic manufacturers and operators (distributors, local authorized representatives) in post-market cosmetovigilance, the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has recently issued guidelines, on a trial basis, on how to report adverse events or /reactions.
To help you stay abreast of these latest regulatory changes and maintain compliance in China, our cosmetics RAQA team here at Cisema has developed the following services:
- Regulation Translation and Summary
- Detailed English translation of the “Guidelines for Collection and Reporting of Adverse Reactions of Cosmetics by Cosmetic Registrants and Filing Persons (Trial)”.
- Key point summary highlighting critical aspects and compliance requirements
- Compliance Assessment and Strategy Development
- Evaluation of your current adverse event / reaction practices against the new guidelines.
- Development of a tailored compliance strategy to meet NMPA requirements.

- Adverse Event and Product Recall Simulation

Although the guidelines have been issued on a trial basis, it is expected that these will come into effect in the near future, therefore it is paramount that cosmetic manufacturers develop robust cosmetovigilance systems to avoid penalties such as having products detained at Chinese customs, mandatory product recalls or even product certifications revoked.
