Help you go global in compliance and seize the beauty market in the Middle East, Europe, and America!
Poland, one of the largest transit trading countries in Central Europe, forms the golden triangle of cosmetics consumption in the Middle East, Europe, and America, with Warsaw, Krakow, and Gdansk. The import value of cosmetics in Poland is expected to exceed 3.6 billion US dollars in 2026, with an average annual growth rate of 2.6%. However, if lipstick, liquid foundation and eye shadow discs want to have a firm foothold in this market, they must cross the three thresholds set by the European Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 in advance - the electronic notification of CPNP, the appointment of domestic responsible person (RP), and the CPSR safety report. In the absence of a customs direct return.
Andaxun International Logistics has been deeply involved in the export of sensitive goods for more than ten years, relying on the three major sources of goods in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Dongguan to create a direct cosmetics shipping line to Poland for you. We provide full container load/consolidation, double clearance and tax inclusive, door-to-door full chain services to ensure your products are compliant and landed in Gdansk and Gdynia, and delivered directly to Warsaw and Poznan.
1、 Shenzhen to Poland cosmetics sea freight price and delivery time: Baltic line, one ticket, one negotiation
The northern part of Poland has two major deep-water ports, Gdansk and Gdynia, with multiple direct routes departing from southern China every week. We match first-hand shipping spaces with COSCO, MSC, EMC and other shipping companies based on cargo volume (20GP/40HQ/LCL), product form (liquid/powder/alcohol), and shipping urgency. One fixed price package: domestic trailer customs clearance+ocean freight+Polish import customs clearance+tariffs (0% under most cosmetics HS 3304 items)+23% value-added tax+final delivery, no additional items.
|FCL direct delivery | 35-45 days | Gdansk/Gdynia direct flight, bulk replenishment|
|LCL transfer | 38-48 days | Through Hamburg transfer, starting from 1CBM, small and medium-sized trial orders|
|DDP door-to-door | 42-52 days | Full custody, waiting for delivery|
*It is recommended to book shipping 4 weeks in advance during the peak season (June September). The land transportation from Gdansk to Warsaw is only 200 kilometers, and it takes about 2-3 hours by truck. *
Tax points: under HS 3304, lip, eye, foundation make-up and other cosmetics are mostly 0% tariff. Polish standard VAT of 23%, calculated based on CIF+tariffs. Importers with Polish tax numbers can apply for deferred import value-added tax, which is not actually paid during customs clearance, quarterly deductions, and significantly reduces capital occupation. Our company will handle the payment without a tax number.
2、 Shenzhen to Poland cosmetics sea freight customs clearance documents: EU cosmetics compliance "three piece set"
The fundamental difference between cosmetic and general cargo customs clearance lies in the CPNP notification - it is similar to the "electronic ID card" issued by the European Union to cosmetics, and customs verifies it in real-time through the internet.
1. EU Responsible Person (RP) - Legal Representative of Non EU Enterprises
Polish regulations require that only legal entities within the European Union can serve as responsible persons. Chinese companies must entrust RP within Poland or EU member states, whose name and address must be printed on the product packaging and inspected by customs upon arrival at the port. Our company can assist in connecting with local service providers.
2. Cosmetic Safety Report (CPSR) - a prerequisite document for CPNP
Signed and issued by a toxicologist recognized by the European Union, it is divided into Part A (formulation, physicochemical parameters, microbiological status) and Part B (risk assessment conclusion). Without CPSR, it is impossible to complete the CPNP notification. It is recommended to start the preparation 2-3 months in advance.
3. CPNP System Notification - Online Instant Effectiveness
The responsible person logs into the CPNP portal, fills in the product name, ingredient (INCI name), label sample, responsible person information, safety assessor qualification, etc. After submission, the system immediately generates a notification number, and the product can be legally sold in the 27 EU countries.
Core documents (our company offers free pre-approval):
-Commercial invoice (in English/Polish, 10 digit HS code, CIF price, EORI number of both parties, listing the product name item by item, prohibiting "cosmetic set")
-Packing list (distinguishing liquid/powder/paste, indicating alcohol content)
-CPNP Notification Number, CPSR Report, RP Contact Information
-MSDS (mandatory for all liquid/paste/powder products)
-INCI ingredient list, certificate of origin, original bill of lading
Polish customs clearance process (handled by Gdansk Cooperative):
-Complete the ICS2 declaration 24 hours before departure, with accurate matching of EORI number, HS code, and cargo description. Fines of 500-5000 euros will be imposed for data errors or omissions.
-Electronic customs declaration, Polish customs network verification of CPNP registration number and RP information.
-Payment of customs duties (if any) and 23% VAT can be processed simultaneously with VAT deferral, and the documents will be released on the same day or within 2 days.
-DPD/Polish Post delivers throughout the country.
3、 Shipping packaging requirements for cosmetics from Shenzhen to Poland: leak proof and shatterproof, with three layers in place
The highest accident rate for cosmetics shipping is liquid leakage and powder tray breakage. Polish customs have the right to directly determine that goods with unstable packaging are "unqualified" and destroy them. Recommend the following standards:
|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. Place absorbent pads or vermiculite inside the box to absorb liquids in case of accidental leakage. |
|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. |
Special reminder for alcoholic products: Alcohol content>24% belongs to Class 3 flammable liquid dangerous goods (UN1266). Single bottle ≤ 500ml and qualified packaging can use the limited quantity LQ channel, but MSDS must be provided truthfully and concealment is strictly prohibited.
Required items: Single box weight limit of 25kg; outer box and product printed with "Made in China"; The product label must have Polish language and include RP information and INCI ingredient list.
4、 Shenzhen to Poland Makeup Shipping Poland Market's Five "Avoiding Pits" Reminder
1. CPNP+RP+CPSR are indispensable: without a notification number, they will be deducted upon arrival at the port. It is recommended to start compliance preparation 2-3 months in advance (designated RP → CPSR → CPNP notification).
2. Note of the new regulation in 2026: essence allergens will increase from 26 to 82 (as of 2026.7.31), and labels, CPSR and CPNP must be updated simultaneously; The new PPWR packaging regulations (effective on August 12, 2026) require packaging heavy metal limits, porosity ≤ 50%, and EPR registration.
3. Value added tax deferral is a money saving tool: Poland's deferred customs clearance policy is relaxed, and those who have a local tax number can apply for it without paying 23% VAT during customs clearance, with quarterly deductions. Suitable for bulk goods with high value and high capital turnover pressure.
4. Polish Customs conducts strict document pre examination: The rate of unqualified customs clearance for incoming goods from January to April 2026 has increased by 12.7% year-on-year, with 42% due to missing CPNP, 28% due to declared value discrepancies, and 17% due to EORI/VAT invalidity. Before shipment, it is necessary to have a professional team pre review the documents.
5. Do not conceal alcoholic products: Alcohol content greater than 24% is considered dangerous goods, and concealing it will result in customs lockdowns and fines. MSDS must be included with the shipment.
