Statement by the Personal Care Products Council on MoCRA Facility Registration and Product Listing Deadline
WASHINGTON—“The Personal Care Products Council (PCPC) member companies continue to work diligently to meet all MoCRA deadlines. As per the upcoming Agency’s compliance policy deadline, the U.S Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) deadline for facility registrations and product listings is July 1, 2024. Although PCPC member companies have long provided more product information than was required by law, MoCRA’s facility registration and product listing requirement increases ingredient and manufacturing transparency. As now mandated by federal law, all cosmetics brand owners must list each product marketed in the U.S. with the FDA, including its ingredients and where it is manufactured. All facilities manufacturing cosmetic products for distribution in the U.S. must also be registered by the deadline.
“Cosmetics companies have been collecting the required information for the last several months and submitting it to the FDA’s Cosmetics Direct electronic platform to meet the July 1 deadline. Companies are also working to update product labels as needed to meet the Dec. 29, 2024, deadline for new product labels to include the contact information of the responsible person (i.e., the manufacturer, packer or distributor) for reporting adverse events.
“PCPC and our member companies continue to engage with and share industry’s perspectives with the FDA as it works to implement MoCRA. PCPC has submitted comments in response to all of the FDA’s public consultations on MoCRA implementation to date, including the Agency’s GMP public meeting and the registration and listing program.”
