Who Needs Cosmetic Import Registration?
Any person or company importing cosmetics manufactured outside India must obtain an import registration from CDSCO under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 (as amended by the Drugs, Medical Devices and Cosmetics Bill provisions). Registration is required before the first shipment — importing cosmetics without valid CDSCO registration results in customs detention and possible confiscation.

- Compilation of Certificate of Analysis (CoA), ingredient list, safety data, and marketing authorization from country of origin
- SUGAM portal filing and fee payment
