Why is the PIF (ÜBD) Important for Market Access?
Legal background
Entering the Turkish cosmetics market without a compliant Product Information File (PIF/ÜBD) is not only risky, it is illegal. Authorities can request your ÜBD at any time to verify that your product is safe, properly documented, and manufactured in line with applicable requirements.
A robust and compliant ÜBD:
- Ensures readiness for the mandatory Product Safety Assessment Report (PSAR).
- Demonstrates that your product complies with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Turkish legislation.
- Protects your brand from costly regulatory sanctions.
- Keeps you prepared for inspections and regulatory updates.
