Why Safety Evidence should always be
held readily available
Legal background
Under Canadian law, manufacturers and importers must be able to provide evidence demonstrating the safety of cosmetic products upon request by the Minister of Health. This requirement ensures that all cosmetics placed on the market are safe for consumer use and comply with national health standards. Keeping your safety documentation up to date not only protects your business but also facilitates seamless access to the Canadian market.
Failing to maintain proper safety evidence can lead to:
-
- Suspension of product sales in the Canadian market.
- Regulatory investigations or product recalls.
- Loss of trust and credibility with distributors and consumers.
- Delays in market re-entry due to incomplete or outdated safety assessments.
