Answer:
Under Vietnam Law, in order to register imported cosmetic products, your client must have an importer duly established and operating under Vietnam Law. This importer shall be the applicant who file the application dossier for registration of cosmetic product. Please note that only importer who filed the application dossier can import registered cosmetic product. In case your Client has not had any such Importer, we can connect you with service companies who are willing to act as Importer. Then, they shall take care all importation of registered products for your Client and transfer the products to parties as designed by your Client.

One Cosmetic Product Registration shall be valid within 05 years from the filing date. Final result of cosmetic product registration shall be released online.
