EU CPNP Registration — Cosmetic Product Notification Portal Compliance

To legally place cosmetic products on the European Union market, every product must be registered with the Cosmetic Product Notification Portal (CPNP) before it is marketed. The CPNP is the official EU database for cosmetic product information, used by authorities and poison centres across the EU to protect consumer safety and ensure rapid response in case of adverse events.

Complico’s EU CPNP Registration Service helps brands, manufacturers, and online sellers fulfil this mandatory regulatory requirement efficiently and accurately — saving you time, minimising risk, and eliminating common registration errors.

Whether you’re launching a new cosmetic line, selling internationally, or working with retailers and marketplaces, our team takes the complexity out of CPNP compliance.

Why CPNP Registration Matters

Under the EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, cosmetic products must be registered in the CPNP before being placed on the EU market. This system:

✔ Provides regulators with access to product data for consumer safety monitoring
✔ Ensures swift analysis in case of adverse events
✔ Is required for all cosmetic categories (skin care, hair care, deodorants, makeup, fragrances, etc.)
✔ Applies whether you sell direct to consumers, through retailers, or via online platforms

Failure to register may result in customs holds, shipment rejections, marketplace listing removals, or regulatory penalties.
