Beauty, cosmetics, cosmetics and export support for Europe
To export to Europe.
In exporting beauty, cosmetics and cosmetics products to Europe and expanding overseas, it is necessary to comply with European regulations.
European Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009
This regulation and its amendments apply directly to all 27 EU countries. The main objective of the European Cosmetics Regulation is safety for the human body. The law also regulates products and samples intended for sale.
The associated penalties for non-compliance can be severe, with high fines in court and the option of imprisonment.
Various Regulations
As an example, you need to comply with regulations in specialized areas such as prohibition of animal testing for beauty, cosmetics and cosmetics, nanomaterials, simplified labeling, chemical safety assessment, carcinogens, mutagens, and toxic substances for reproduction.
Swapsss is an expert group and offers full support! Another great advantage of your company is that we can respond in Japanese.
product label
Swapsss supports you in understanding the law for product labels for beauty, cosmetics, and cosmetics products for the European market.
In addition, there are other labeling regulations depending on the cosmetic box of the product, and it depends on the product, such as the label on the cosmetic box, the body, or the wrapping sticker.
Our company can also handle label creation, translation, printing, and pasting services.
Obligation to appoint a person responsible for Europe
A responsible person with a European address must be appointed. This information must be included on the label and registered with the European Commission.
Generally, a local distributor is often the responsible person, but is he or she really trustworthy? Exclusive distribution rights, whether they are willing to change the responsible person in the future, etc. need to be carefully considered.
Swapsss will act as the responsible person on behalf of the local distributor.
We promise to be flexible, for example, if you want to change the responsible party to a new business partner in the medium term.
ENROLLMENT IN CPNP
To do this, you need to complete the registration, including the information of the responsible local person and location, shipping origin, nanomaterials, ingredients list, original labels and local package photos.
Swapsss will carry out the registration with CPNP on behalf of your company or responsible person, in English and local language.
Advantages of Expanding into Europe
Although the mere mention of the European market may give the impression of high barriers to entry,
the French market in particular is an attractive market with a high affinity for Japan.
Available for sale throughout Europe
By registering, you will be able to legally market your products in 27 European countries, opening up a whole new world of opportunities.
Understanding the thoughts of the creator
They understand our products, our philosophy, our passion, and the value of our products. This eliminates the price competition that exists in the Japanese and Asian markets.
not sticking to fashion
Unlike the Japanese market, the European market has no new products or fads.
Therefore, if a product is accepted by customers, it will continue to sell for a long time.
Trust in Japan
