China: Beauty Revolution New Regulations Announced for Cosmetics
摘要
The cosmetics market in China is growing bigger each year. The Regulations on Hygiene Supervision of Cosmetics (<化妆品卫生监督条例>) (“Current Regulation”) will be replaced by the Regulations on Supervision and Administration of Cosmetics (<化妆品监督管理条例>) (“New Regulation”) which was published on 29 June 2020 and will be enacted from 1 January 2021. The New Regulation is passed in a similar form to the Second Draft with minor changes. For overseas cosmetics manufacturers, the New Regulation provides more market access; less red tape and more certainty. On the negative side, the New Regulation will increase obligations and expands the types of measures the Chinese authorities can take. However, none of the measures are highly surprising and the triggers for taking action are also reasonable. Few international manufacturers are likely to be anxious about such measures. It would be wise for overseas manufacturers to monitor the implementation of the New Regulation as they will not bring just increased levels of responsibilities but very welcome market access and clarity.
