Responsible Person (RP): A Fundamental Requirement of the Cosmetic Industry
To ensure that cosmetics align with the latest quality and safety standards, markets across the globe have stringent Regulatory requirements. In markets such as the European Union, the United Kingdom, Malaysia, India, Saudi Arabia, etc., appointing a Legal Representative/Responsible Person (RP)/ Local Agent/License Holder is mandatory for local compliance. Due to the economic and operational constraints, establishing own subsidiaries in each country may not be feasible for all cosmetic manufacturers. Hence, manufacturers must appoint a Responsible Person for a seamless market entry.
