Responsible Person
The Responsible Person is legally required for cosmetic products placed on the EU and UK markets. Products cannot be legally placed on the relevant market without a designated Responsible Person established in that jurisdiction.
The EU and UK require separate market arrangements. An EU Responsible Person does not automatically cover the UK, and a UK Responsible Person does not automatically cover the EU.
Request assessment
Send the INCI or formulation, product type, intended market, label artwork where available, and raw-material information where available.
For an imported EU cosmetic product, the importer is normally the Responsible Person unless another EU-established person is designated by a written mandate and accepts it in writing. Great Britain requires a UK-established RP; Northern Ireland has its own EU-framework arrangements. Confirm the named entity, covered products, territories, documentation access and post-market responsibilities before placing its details on labels.
For the Great Britain service route, see Pretty Yeppuda UK Ltd’s UK Responsible Person service. Appointments and product scope are agreed separately.
