On May 9, 2025, the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC) announced the official launch of a new functional module within the Smart Cosmetic Registration and Evaluation System, enabling the simultaneous submission of new cosmetic ingredients and related products. In order to implement the requirements outlined in the Provisions on Supporting Innovation in Cosmetic Ingredients issued by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), and to enhance the efficiency of the review and approval processes for new cosmetic ingredients and cosmetic products, the NIFDC has optimized the Smart Cosmetic Registration and Evaluation System. A new functional module has been added to support the integrated submission of new cosmetic ingredients and their associated products, which officially went live on May 9, 2025. Through this module, registrants and filers of new cosmetic ingredients and related products may submit the registration application for special cosmetics that utilize the new ingredient concurrently at the time of the ingredient's registration or notification.
