Cosmetics - MoCRA

FDA MoCRA Product Listing

The FDA regulates cosmetics under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act (FDCA) of 1938. The Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022 (MoCRA) is the most significant expansion of the FDA’s authority over cosmetic products in the United States since the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) of 1938. The recent changes in Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act (MoCRA) has brought significant changes to the cosmetic industry, requiring manufacturers, packers, and distributors to comply with updated safety and regulatory standards. Among these changes is the introduction of mandatory cosmetic product listing with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Each product manufactured or imported in the US is subject to a mandatory cosmetic product listing that details everything from the ingredients, including fragrance or flavor, and responsible party to the facility of manufacture and its location.

At FG, our team of experts can guide you through every step of this process.

FDA MoCRA Facility Registration

Manufacturers and processors must register their facilities with FDA and renew their registration every two years. FDA has the authority to suspend a facility’s registration if the agency determines that a cosmetic product manufactured or processed by the registered facility and distributed in the United States has a reasonable probability of causing serious adverse health consequences or death to humans, and the agency has a reasonable belief that other products manufactured or processed by the facility may be similarly affected because of a failure that cannot be isolated to a product or products, or is sufficiently pervasive to raise concerns about other products manufactured in the facility.

Our experts specialize in helping your business comply with the requirements of the MoCRA, which mandates registration of cosmetic facilities and product listings with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

FDA- Facility Registration & Renewal

Stay Compliant. Stay Market-Ready!!

If you manufacture, pack, or store dietary supplements for the U.S. market, FDA facility registration is a mandatory regulatory requirement under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA). Whether you’re a U.S.-based company or a foreign facility exporting to the U.S., compliance begins with registering your facility.

Who Must Register?

All domestic and foreign facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold dietary supplements for consumption in the U.S. must:

  • Register with the FDA before beginning operations
  • Renew registration every even-numbered year (e.g., 2024, 2026)
  • Appoint a U.S. agent (for foreign facilities)
