EAC Conformity for Hair Dyes
For Hair Dyes, composition, intended use, target user, claims, physical form and special ingredients can be more decisive than the product name alone. We cross-check the product description with the applicable EAEU technical regulations and TN VED 3305 90, using the customs code as supporting evidence rather than as the only legal basis.

What is usually required for this product?
Formula/composition, specifications, safety data, microbiological or toxicological evidence, labeling and claims should be reviewed together. Under TR CU 009/2011, cosmetics outside Annex 12 follow an EAC Declaration of Conformity; products listed in Annex 12 require state registration. The supplied formula and intended use determine the route. Chemical hair coloring, lightening and highlighting products require state registration under Annex 12, including eyebrow and eyelash products after Decision No. 114. Other temporary color cosmetics must be classified by composition and mechanism; submit all components and mixing instructions.
Which conformity route applies?
The review begins with composition and intended use, then checks special ingredients, claims, labeling and the conformity route. Under TR CU 009/2011, cosmetics outside Annex 12 follow an EAC Declaration of Conformity; products listed in Annex 12 require state registration. The supplied formula and intended use determine the route. Chemical hair coloring, lightening and highlighting products require state registration under Annex 12, including eyebrow and eyelash products after Decision No. 114. Other temporary color cosmetics must be classified by composition and mechanism; submit all components and mixing instructions.
Applicable technical regulations
Annex 12 includes children's cosmetics, family cosmetics intended also for children under 14, nanomaterial products and specified special-purpose cosmetics. Medicinal products, raw ingredients and household chemicals need separate scope classification.

Frequently asked questions
Can two products with the same name follow different routes?
Yes. Composition, target user and special claims can change the regulatory treatment.
Why is the label reviewed early?
The label reveals intended use, claims, warnings and user group, all of which can affect classification.
Which EAC regulation applies to Hair Dyes?
Under TR CU 009/2011, cosmetics outside Annex 12 follow an EAC Declaration of Conformity; products listed in Annex 12 require state registration.

Other temporary color cosmetics must be classified by composition and mechanism; submit all components and mixing instructions.
Does the HS / TN VED code alone determine the route?
No. Customs classification is an important input, but the technical product description and the wording of the regulatory lists must be checked together.
