Cosmetic UK Responsible Person
To sell your product in the UK, it must adhere to Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 on Cosmetic Products, modified by the Product Safety and Metrology (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019.
Under the European Cosmetic Regulation EU 1223/2009, each of your items requires a designated “Responsible Person” in the UK. While the UK distributor is typically responsible for the UKRP, they can delegate this role to another entity.
This “Responsible Person” oversees conformity, especially concerning Article 4 of the UK Cosmetic Product Regulations, addressing consumer information, safety, and health.
For seamless compliance, Patient Guard can serve as your Responsible Person. Our tasks on your behalf encompass:
- Assembling and preparing product information files (PIF). This covers regulatory support for labelling specifications, and claims.
- The PIF files are kept by us and are updated.
- We will check to make sure any banned or restricted substance are not within your cosmetic product.
- Provide you with direction on Good Manufacturing Practice (ISO 22716).
