Human review
Compliance notes
Request latest SDS, TDS, COA, product specification sheet, composition or INCI statement, allergen/impurity statement if available, and cosmetic raw material declaration.
Verify whether the product is classified as dangerous goods for sea, air, or road transport based on the current SDS; do not rely only on marketplace listing text.
Confirm export HS code, customs description, country of origin, and whether any destination-market pre-notification or chemical inventory obligations may apply.
Supplier listing includes cosmetic-use context, but buyer should independently confirm suitability for the target market and finished product category.
Check restricted impurities and contaminants relevant to cosmetic supply chains, such as heavy metals, residual solvents, amines/nitrosamine risk where applicable, microbial limits, and preservative status.
Confirm whether animal-origin, palm-derived, vegan, halal, kosher, RSPO, REACH, China cosmetic ingredient, EU/UK/US/ASEAN documentation, or other market-specific statements are available if required.
No regulatory approval, market access, or customs clearance outcome should be assumed from the listing; request documents and conduct buyer-side compliance review.
