On July 8, 2024, China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) announced the full implementation of electronic submission for cosmetics (including toothpaste) and new cosmetic ingredient (NCI) registration and notification materials. This measure will be officially implemented starting September 1, 2024, with a transition period provided to ensure it does not disrupt companies currently applying for registration and notification.
The electronic submission requirements will improve the cosmetics and NCI registration and notification process. Companies will no longer need to mail paper documents, as the process can be handled electronically. This change will reduce the effort companies must exert and lower their manpower costs.
