Cosmetic Product Registration in Brazil

The cosmetics market in Brazil is one of the largest and fastest-growing globally. With rising consumer awareness and increasing demand for skincare and beauty products, Brazil presents a lucrative opportunity for cosmetic brands worldwide.

Understanding the ANVISA Cosmetic Registration process is essential to ensure smooth market entry and avoid compliance delays.

Cosmetics and personal care products in Brazil are regulated by ANVISA Cosmetic Regulations, specifically Resolution RDC 907/2024, which consolidates requirements for safety, labeling, claims, and registration.

According to ANVISA Cosmetic Regulation, products are classified into two main categories based on risk level:

Both pathways are managed by ANVISA through the SCPN (Sistema de Peticionamento e Notificação Eletrônico) platform.

To complete Beauty Product Registration in Brazil, foreign manufacturers must appoint a Brazilian legal representative.

Only companies legally registered in Brazil and holding an ANVISA Operation Permit (AFE) can handle cosmetic notification or registration processes.

• For Grade I Cosmetics (Notification):

  Products may enter the market immediately after submitting the notification through ANVISA’s online system.

• For Grade II Cosmetics (Registration):

  Requires online petition, complete dossier submission, safety and efficacy documentation, and Regulatory Review by ANVISA. Once approved, the ANVISA registration number is published in the Diário Oficial da União (Official Gazette), authorizing import and distribution.
