Brazil-Collegiate Board Resolution No. 1.045/2026 (RDC 1.045/2026)

Issued by Brazil’s ANVISA on 5 October 2026 and effective on 4 December 2026, this Collegiate Board Resolution establishes Brazil’s first dedicated simplified regulatory framework for artisanal cosmetics. It grants qualified artisanal cosmetic products exemptions from ANVISA registration/notification, AFE operating authorization and technical manager obligation, while setting binding requirements for producer qualification, manufacturing hygiene, labelling, maximum 12-month shelf life and complaint handling; products failing to meet criteria remain subject to the full industrial cosmetics regim.
