Our Service
The Submit Cosmetic Product Notification (SCPN) portal is the official UK system for registering cosmetic products before they enter the Great Britain market. Run by the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS), it replaced the EU’s CPNP after Brexit. Its purpose is simple. Every cosmetic sold in England, Scotland, or Wales must be notified here first. This keeps consumers safe and businesses compliant.
Process
Getting a product notified on SCPN follows a clear path. Here is the step-by-step process:
Step No 1: Appoint a Responsible Person based in the UK who will manage the submission.
Step No 2: Prepare your product data, including ingredients, category, and packaging type.
Step No 3: Complete a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) confirming the product is safe for use.
Step No 4: Log in to SCPN using a GOV.UK One Login account.
Step No 5: Submit the notification with full product and contact details.
Step No 6: Receive your SCPN reference number, which confirms your product can legally be sold in GB.
Step No 7: Update the record whenever the formula or labelling changes.
