Although cosmetic companies are not subject to mandatory establishment registration or ingredient reporting but they may voluntarily register their establishments and their product compositions through FDA’s Voluntary Cosmetic Registration Program (VCRP). Data provided by Cosmetic Companies through the VCRP helps the agency to prioritize its safety testing program. Anyone can have access to the information registered with VCRP through the Freedom of Information Act. Registration with VCRP also enables agency to notify cosmetics companies about potential problems with the ingredients in their products and helps the agency with inspections that may be necessary. However, registration with VCRP is prohibited from being used as a promotional tool. Reference: Fundamentals of US Regulatory Affairs, Sixth Edition.
