FDA MoCRA · Evidence and marketplace readiness

Build the evidence behind a cosmetic registration, listing, or exemption statement.

FDA’s September 9 clarification resolves a costly point of confusion: the agency does not issue certificates, letters, emails, or other documents verifying cosmetic facility registration, product listing, or an exemption. Use the actual records that support the specific statement you need to make.

September 9, 2026 FDA clarification: registration and listing are not FDA approval programs, and a registration or listing number does not indicate approval. Read the FDA source.
