The growth rate of the Spanish beauty market leads that of southern Europe, with demand for Chinese cosmetics continuing to rise for pharmacy chains in Madrid and independent beauty stores in Barcelona. However, if lipstick, liquid foundation, eye shadow plate and other products want to go on the Spanish shelves successfully, they must take the lead in passing the three passes of "EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009": CPNP notification, responsible person (RP), and CPSR safety report. In 2026, Spanish customs will fully integrate into the EU ICS2 import control system, and the intensity of document review will be upgraded again. Andaxun International Logistics has been focusing on the export of sensitive goods for more than ten years. We are now creating a cosmetics shipping line from Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Dongguan to Barcelona and Valencia ports, providing one-stop services such as full container load/less than container load, double clearance and tax inclusive, and door-to-door.

The IVA tax rate in Spain is 21%, calculated based on CIF+tariffs. Spanish tax number can apply for deferred import value-added tax (not actually paid during customs clearance, quarterly deduction); Our company will handle the payment without a tax number.

2、 Shenzhen to Spain Makeup Shipping Customs Clearance Documents: CPNP+RP+CPSR "Iron Triangle"

The difference between cosmetics and general merchandise customs clearance is that the EU Cosmetics Notification (CPNP) must be completed in advance, and both are indispensable.

Step 1: Designate an EU Responsible Person (RP)

Non EU companies are required to designate a Responsible Person (RP) in member states such as Spain. The name and address of RP must be printed on the outer packaging of the product, and customs will verify them one by one.

Step 2: Obtain the Cosmetic Safety Report (CPSR)

The prerequisite for CPNP registration is to hold a CPSR safety report, signed and issued by a toxicology expert recognized by the European Union, proving that the product is harmless to the human body.

Step 3: Complete the CPNP system notification

RP uploads product information (product name, ingredients, country of origin, responsible person information, etc.) on the CPNP portal, and the system generates a notification number in real time. The product can then be legally listed.

Important milestone in 2026: The EU will increase the disclosure of essence allergens from 26 to 82 (as of July 31, 2026). The products involved must complete CPSR updates, CPNP re notifications, and Spanish label revisions before the deadline.

1. Essential documents (our company offers free pre-approval):

-Commercial invoice (in Spanish/English, 10 digit HS code, CIF price, EORI number of both parties, listing product name item by item, prohibiting "cosmetic set")

-Packing list (distinguish liquid/powder/paste, indicate alcohol content separately)

-CPNP Notification Number, CPSR Report, RP Contact Information

-MSDS (mandatory for all liquid, paste, and powder products)

-INCI ingredient list (international nomenclature, labeled concentration)

-Certificate of Origin, Original Bill of Lading

2. Customs clearance process (handled by Barcelona partner agency):

24 hours before departure: Complete ICS2 entry declaration, EORI number, HS code, and cargo description must be accurate, and fines of 500-5000 euros will be imposed for data errors or omissions.

2. Electronic customs declaration: The Spanish customs network verifies the authenticity of the CPNP registration number and RP information.

3. Tax payment release: Tax duties (if any) will be paid on behalf of others, and 21% value-added tax will be deferred or paid on behalf of others. The release will be made on the same day or within 2 days when all documents are complete.

4. End of line delivery: DPD/Spanish Post delivers to the entire area of Madrid, Barcelona, Seville, and Bilbao.

3、 Packaging Requirements for Cosmetics Shipping from Shenzhen to Spain: Leak proof, Shattered, and Environmentally Compliant

The two major pain points of cosmetics shipping are liquid leakage and powder tray breakage. In 2026, Spain will tighten its environmental review of packaging. Four layer protection method:

|Inner layer | bottle mouth aluminum foil seal+sealing cap, inverted for 24 hours without leakage; The powder is completely wrapped with pearl wool/sponge and fixed without shaking.  |

|Middle layer | Each individual item is packaged in a leak proof plastic bag and undergoes a second inverted test after heat sealing. Alcoholic products with an alcohol content greater than 24% belong to Class 3 dangerous goods (UN1266), with a single bottle size of ≤ 500ml, and the outer box is labeled with a limit label and UN1266 number.  |

|Outer layer | Five layer double anti corrugated box, sealed with the word "gong", tape width ≥ 5cm; labeled with "fragile", "upward", "sun resistant", and "liquid" in both Chinese and English. Wooden pallets must be marked with IPPC fumigation, and if the handwriting is blurry, they can be returned directly.  |

|Wooden pallets must have clear IPPC markings, and products containing liquids or glass bottles should be reinforced with additional wrapping film.  |

PPWR Packaging Regulations (effective August 12, 2026):

-The total content of heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium) in the packaging is ≤ 100mg/kg

-Packaging porosity ≤ 50% (excessive packaging is prohibited)

-Disable disposable non recyclable foam and use EPE pearl cotton or pulp molding instead

-Exporting to Spain requires completion of EPR packaging law registration and printing of recycling labels on the packaging (our company can handle it on our behalf)

Required items: Single box weight limit of 25kg; outer box and minimum packaging should be printed with "Made in China"; The Spanish label is complete (including RP information, INCI ingredient list, 82 kinds of essence allergen warnings, and the last two will be enforced after July 31, 2026).

4、 Reminder on Five "Avoiding Pits" for Shipping Makeup to the Spanish Market

1. CPNP+CPSR+RP are indispensable: goods without a CPNP notification number will be returned upon arrival at the port. It is recommended to initiate compliance preparation three months in advance (designated RP → completed CPSR → CPNP notification).

2. essence allergen upgrade (as of July 31, 2021): The list of 82 allergens will come into effect, and the label, CPSR, and CPNP must be updated simultaneously. Old version products need to be rectified before the deadline, otherwise they may face delisting.

3. Value added tax deferral saves cash flow: Spanish tax numbers can be applied for deferral, and 21% IVA will not be paid during customs clearance, with quarterly deductions. Without a tax number, our company can clear on behalf of you.

4. PPWR Packaging Regulations: Mandatory from August 12, 2026, packaging materials, porosity, and EPR registration are all indispensable. Our company can assist in completing the compliance review.

5. Truthfully declare alcoholic products: Alcohol content greater than 24% is considered a dangerous goods, and single bottles of ≤ 500ml with qualified packaging can use the limited quantity LQ channel, but MSDS must be provided and concealment is strictly prohibited. Spanish ports strictly review the consistency of perfume/cosmetics transportation data, and the MSDS must be fully matched with the actual situation of the goods.
