What to know before importing personal care & lifestyle from India
- Where it’s made
- Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Baddi (Himachal Pradesh), Kerala (ayurvedic), Kannauj (fragrances)
- Usual HS classification
- Chapters 33 (cosmetics, essential oils) and 34 (soaps)
- Typical production time
- 30–60 days; private label adds artwork time, plus shipping
- Certifications buyers ask for
- GMP and ISO 22716 · COSMOS or Ecocert for organic claims · US FDA registration (cosmetics) · EU CPNP notification through a Responsible Person
- Export documents
- Commercial invoice and packing list · Certificate of origin · Bill of lading or airway bill · Certificate of analysis and safety data sheet
- Before you order
- Check every ingredient is allowed in your market
- Run a stability test on the final pack
- Agree who owns the formula
General guidance for planning. Your supplier’s quotation confirms lead time and documents, and your customs broker confirms the HS code and duty.
Rules to plan for in Africa
- Pre-shipment conformity programmes such as SONCAP (Nigeria) or PVoC (Kenya)
- Third-party inspection before loading
- Payment by letter of credit is common and supported
Requirements depend on the exact product. Name them in your request and the quotation includes the right tests and documents.
