Anvisa cosmetic compliance requirements in Brazil

Cosmetic companies entering Brazil must comply with Anvisa cosmetic compliance requirements, including product classification, notification or registration, ingredient restrictions, labeling in Portuguese, safety substantiation, and post-market obligations. Understanding these regulatory requirements early helps companies avoid delays, rejected submissions, or commercialization restrictions.

Anvisa (Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária) regulates cosmetic products in Brazil to protect consumer health and ensure product safety. The agency oversees classification, product notification or registration, ingredient restrictions, labeling in Portuguese, and post-market surveillance.

Cosmetics are divided into two categories: Grau 1, with basic functions and lower risk, subject only to product notification; and Grau 2, which claim specific functions or involve greater risk, requiring full registration. Correct classification is the first step for Anvisa cosmetic compliance.

Companies must submit the correct documentation to Anvisa’s system, following RDC 752/2022. This may include formulation data, safety and efficacy evidence, manufacturing information, and compliant labeling in Portuguese. Sobel assists with preparing and submitting dossiers for both notification and registration processes.

Non-compliant products may face recalls, entry refusal at customs, fines, or market withdrawal. Anvisa has authority to suspend sales and apply enforcement actions. Partnering with experts like Sobel helps prevent regulatory issues and protects your brand’s reputation.

Achieving Anvisa cosmetic compliance typically involves product classification, notification or registration, ingredient and formulation review, labeling adaptation to Portuguese requirements, safety assessment, and the appointment of a Brazilian regulatory representative when applicable. Working with specialized regulatory consultants helps companies coordinate all these steps efficiently and avoid compliance risks.

With Sobel, companies gain clarity and complete support across different fronts, achieving Anvisa cosmetic compliance and building long-term success in the Brazilian market.
