Russian Market Solution for Cosmetics Manufacturers
The Russian cosmetics and personal care market offers significant growth opportunity for producers thanks to its high consumption volume and strong online sales infrastructure.
We open cosmetics producers' products for sale in the Russian market and manage the entire operational process end-to-end.
Regulation: TR CU 009/2011 and Chestny ZNAK
Perfume and cosmetic products fall under the Eurasian Economic Union technical regulation TR CU 009/2011. For most products an EAC declaration of conformity is sufficient, while some groups, such as children's cosmetics, tanning products and skin-whitening products, require state registration (SGR).
Most perfumes and cosmetics are also subject to Chestny ZNAK marking. The label must include a Russian ingredient list, instructions for use, manufacturer and importer details and the expiry date.
Marketplace Dynamics in Cosmetics
In cosmetics, ratings and reviews largely drive the purchase decision. In the first weeks we therefore focus on collecting reviews, visuals with usage instructions and product cards that show the ingredient list clearly.
Shelf life is a planning topic of its own: marketplaces may refuse products with little remaining shelf life. We size shipment batches according to production date and sales velocity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which documents do cosmetics need in Russia?
For most products an EAC declaration of conformity under TR CU 009/2011 is sufficient. Some groups, such as children's cosmetics, require state registration (SGR); we determine the right document for your product group before shipment.
Do we need to translate product labels into Russian?
Yes, consumer information must be in Russian. The Russian label can be printed during production, or an additional Russian sticker can be applied before the goods enter Russia; we choose the right approach based on the product and volume.
