Before a cosmetic can be placed on the EU market, it must be notified in the Cosmetic Products Notification Portal (CPNP). We compile and validate the full dataset, prepare your label and product image for upload, file every SKU, and manage updates, so you can enter the EU market with confidence!















A complete CPNP entry is more than an online form — it is the official record authorities and poison centres use to review your product, frame formulation, label details, and any nanomaterials involved.
Clean, accurate data prevents rework, avoids delays, and gives your Responsible Person a predictable regulatory flow.
We prepare and file the full CPNP notification for each SKU or variant — including all mandatory fields, label/media uploads, nanomaterial handling, and ongoing updates when your product changes.

We prepare and file the full CPNP notification for each SKU or variant — including all mandatory fields, label/media uploads, nanomaterial handling, and ongoing updates when your product changes.
Structured CPNP Data Pack (Article 13): A validated dataset with product category/name, RP details, country of origin, ingredient info, frame formulation, nanomaterial flags, CMR identifiers, and ready-to-upload label and product image.
Complete CPNP Filing & ID Confirmation: Creation or update of the notification for each SKU or variant, with CPNP IDs recorded for your PIF and regulatory logs.
Nanomaterials Timeline & Submission Handling: If applicable, planning and execution of Article 16 pre-notification — including six-month timelines and exceptions for listed colorants, preservatives, and UV filters.
A precise, well-structured CPNP process reduces delays, prevents errors, and gives your RP reliable documentation to support EU market access.
A complete and accurate CPNP entry allows your product to move into the EU market without compliance gaps or administrative delays. We prepare every detail to keep your launches predictable and aligned with EU expectations.
Under EU law, the Responsible Person (RP) established in the European Union is the only entity legally allowed to submit cosmetic product notifications in the CPNP. If Sobel is your RP, we handle the full submission directly. If you already have an RP, we prepare the complete Article 13 dataset, label files, and product images so your RP can submit without rework or delays.
The notification must be completed before the product is placed on the EU market — meaning before it becomes available for sale in any EU Member State.If a product has shades or variants, each SKU requires its own CPNP entry, all completed prior to launch.
Yes. The CPNP acts as a single EU-wide notification system, replacing former national submissions.
Once a product is notified in the CPNP, it can be marketed across all EU Member States without additional local notifications.
Yes. Under Article 16, certain nanomaterials require a six-month pre-notification before market entry. We review your formula to determine if Article 16 applies, plan the timeline, and prepare the submission when needed.
No. The CPNP notification does not replace the Product Information File (PIF) required under Article 11.However, the data in your CPNP entry must be fully aligned with your PIF — including product identity, formulation, label text, and RP information. We can support both services to keep everything consistent.
