CPNP notification for cosmetic products

What the Responsible Person must notify through the CPNP before a cosmetic product is placed on the EU market, and which documentation (CPSR, PIF, labelling) must be in place.

Who submits the notification?

The Responsible Person under Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, before the product is placed on the market (Article 13).

What the notification contains

Category and name, Responsible Person and the address where the PIF is made available, country of origin in the case of import, Member State, contact person, nanomaterials, CMR substances (category 1A/1B), frame formulation, and the original labelling and a photograph of the packaging where reasonably legible.

A CPNP notification is not an approval or a certification.
