Introduction:

Document preparation is a key step in cosmetic notification. Incomplete or incorrect documentation is the most common cause of delays in EDA approval.

Essential Documents:

1- Notification Form – Official form submitted via EDA portal

2- Composition Form – INCI names, functional percentages, and raw material sources

3- Safety and Efficacy Reports – Any available toxicology, safety assessment, or clinical data

4- Label & Artwork – Must include Arabic translation, proper warnings, batch number, and expiration dates

5- Certificates – Free Sale Certificate for imports, GMP certificate for manufacturers

6- Technical Dossier – Optional supporting data for product claims

Conclusion:

Having a complete document checklist ensures faster review and approval by the EDA and reduces the risk of rejection or additional requests.
