Hassle-Free Export of Cosmeceutical Repair Cream to China from Japan_ Shenzhen Shekou Port Clearance Solutions

Essential Documents for Smooth Export

To ensure seamless export, Japanese cosmeceutical repair cream exporters must prepare these key documents:

• Cosmetics Record-ation or Registration Certificate: This is a mandatory document for imported cosmetics in China, issued by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). For cosmeceutical repair cream, if it claims specific efficacy such as skin repair, a Registration Certificate is required; otherwise, a Record-ation Certificate suffices. Japanese exporters must first complete local filing in Japan, then submit the document to NMPA with accurate Chinese translations and official notarization.
• Chinese Label Compliance Record: Imported cosmetics must have Chinese labels that comply with China’s corresponding national cosmetic labeling standards. The labels must include all mandatory elements like product name, ingredient list, net content, and safety warnings in Chinese. Accurate translation and proper filing with NMPA are crucial to avoid post-arrival label revisions.
• Safety Assessment Report: Issued by a third-party institution recognized by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW), this report verifies product safety, including details like heavy metal content and allergen information. Translated into Chinese, it is indispensable for customs clearance.
• Certificate of Origin (COO): Issued by Japan’s local chamber of commerce, the COO confirms the product’s origin and requires notarization by Chinese consulates in Japan to meet China’s customs requirements.
