Responsible Person for Cosmetic Products in Türkiye

The Türkiye Cosmetics Regulation requires that every cosmetic product placed on the market is supported by documented evidence demonstrating its safety, quality, and regulatory compliance. Accordingly, all manufacturers wishing to place cosmetic products on the market in Türkiye must appoint a locally established Responsible Person.

Whether you are a manufacturer based outside Türkiye or a company operating locally but outsourcing regulatory processes, working with a qualified Responsible Person is essential for market entry, pre-market compliance, and ongoing regulatory conformity.

Obelis Türkiye acts as a trusted Responsible Person partner, ensuring that your products are placed on the market safely, all legal requirements are fulfilled, and regulatory obligations are continuously monitored.

Legal background

Responsible Person under the Turkish Cosmetics Regulation

The Türkiye Cosmetics Regulation requires that all cosmetic products placed on the market in Türkiye are associated with an appointed Responsible Person who assumes legal responsibility for compliance.

Incorrect appointment of a Responsible Person, or assuming that the importer can automatically take on this role, may create significant risks for brands:

  • Loss of control over regulatory compliance processes in Türkiye
  • Limited distribution flexibility due to reliance on importers
  • Delayed market access due to incomplete or incorrect documentation
  • Regulatory penalties, product recalls, or sales bans due to missed updates in the Türkiye Cosmetics Regulation
  • Damage to brand reputation
