The main legal basis for Japan to supervise foreign products in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical sector is the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law, and the main unit for supervision is the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.
Japan has implemented a strict examination and approval system for foreign products of the Ministry of Medicine, and formulated other standards for the use of hair dyes, perms, medicinal toothpaste and medicinal shower gel, including the types, contents and specifications of active ingredients and additives. If it exceeds the use standard, information such as efficacy, safety and ingredient compatibility shall be submitted at the time of examination and approval.
The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has issued a "usable ingredient list" of raw materials used in the production of foreign products by the Ministry of Medicine. Enterprises can only use the raw materials in this list to produce foreign products of the Ministry of Health, and the concentration and specifications of the raw materials used must be consistent with those specified in the list. To use new raw materials or expand the scope of use, it is necessary to declare the raw materials first.
Japan is very strict in the publicity and management of the efficacy of foreign products of the Ministry of Medicine, and basically every product has a fixed publicity clause. In the process of examination and approval, the "Drug Investigation and Guidance Department" responsible for examination and approval of technical consultation can directly discuss with the enterprise on the determination and labeling of curative effect.
