FAQs

A PIF must contain documents demonstrating product safety and EU & UK compliance. Documentation required includes
- Raw material data – Safety Data Sheets (SDS), Technical Data Sheets (TDS), Certificates of Analysis, allergen data, purity information, and origin statements if applicable
- Complete finished formula data – product stability, package compatibility, microbiological testing, and GMP certification for manufacturing compliance
- Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR)
- Compliant labels and claims per Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 Articles 19 and 20
Yes, the PIF must be fully compliant with the provisions set out in the EU and UK regulation before the notification can be performed.
The Responsible Person maintains the PIF and must ensure the PIF is:
- Readily accessible in electronic or other format to competent authorities
- Available at one single address within the EU and or the UK
- Detailed, compliant, and up to date with any regulatory changes or product amends
- Available in a language which can be easily understood by the competent authorities of the Member State.

Yes. If you are not sure if your PIF is up-to-date, and either you or someone else is acting as the Responsible Person and you don’t want to change, we can still review your PIF to give you the peace of mind and confidence that you are fully compliant.
