Cosmetics Warehousing in China

Plan cosmetics inventory around product classification, batch records, packaging and sales channels. Assess storage conditions and the import route for the actual formulation.

Identify each formulation and sales route

A cosmetics bonded warehouse brief in China should distinguish product identity, formulation, intended use and sales channel. Give the proposed import route and any existing registration or filing references. A warehouse contract does not replace product-specific regulatory responsibilities.

Set batch and shelf-life controls

Provide batch coding, expiry or period-of-use information, carton identifiers and units per carton. Specify what must remain visible after picking and packing. Separate damaged, leaking or returned items from saleable stock and define who approves their next step.

Review packaging and storage conditions

Send manufacturer temperature and humidity specifications. Identify glass containers, aerosol formats, alcohol content or other handling characteristics requiring assessment. Frozen or deep-cold capacity at Hongqiao does not imply the correct conditions for a beauty product; its specification determines the requirement.

Agree value-added work before arrival

Supply approved artwork and instructions for any labels, promotional packs or gift sets. Specify whether the outer pack or the product itself is to be changed. The trade route, product rules and permitted warehouse work must support the proposed task. TAPO assesses the scope and associated handling costs before work is committed.

Questions before shipment

Does cosmetics storage include product registration?

Do not assume so. Specify the existing regulatory status and the work you need; product filing or registration responsibilities require separate confirmation.

Can returned cosmetics re-enter saleable inventory?

Condition, traceability, safety and customs status need assessment. Returned goods should not automatically be made available for resale.
