In Turkey, cosmetic products must be notified through the ÜTS (Product Tracking System) before being placed on the market under the Cosmetics Regulation, and a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) must be prepared for each product. The assessment must be carried out by a safety assessor with documented competence.
What does a CPSR include?
Part A: product safety information — formulation, physicochemical and microbiological properties, impurities, packaging, exposure and the toxicological profile of the ingredients. Part B: the assessor's reasoned safety conclusion, label warnings and signature.
Our Scope
- Preparation of the CPSR — ingredient-based toxicological assessment, MoS calculations
- ÜTS product notifications and company registration procedures
- Screening of the formulation against prohibited/restricted ingredient lists
- INCI naming and label compliance check (ingredient list, warnings, responsible person)
- Claim compliance assessment
- Structuring of the PIF (Product Information File)
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes; a separate safety assessment is required for each cosmetic product. Colour/fragrance variants within the same range may be combined into a single report with justification.
Largely yes; however, the report needs to be reviewed and adapted for differences in the lists under Turkish legislation and for responsible person information.
Individuals with documented qualifications in pharmacy, toxicology, medicine or related fields who have completed assessor training may sign a CPSR.
