How We Get Your Product Notified

A clear, four-step process — from your first enquiry to an approved NOT number in your hands.

  1. 1

    Free Consultation

    Tell us about your product. We assess your product category, ingredients, and documentation needs — and advise you on the clearest path to NPRA compliance.

    What to send us

    • Your product list and product type
    • Full ingredient list (INCI names) if you have it
    • Your label artwork or draft
    • Whether you have a Malaysian company, or need a CNH
  2. 2

    Document Preparation

    We compile your full dossier and Product Information File, verify all ingredients against NPRA's Cosmetic Ingredient List, and review your label for compliance before submission.

    What we prepare

    • INCI ingredient list and formulation
    • Certificate of Analysis and safety data
    • Manufacturer details
    • Label checked against NPRA's labelling requirements
  3. 3

    Quest 3+ Submission

    We submit your NPRA cosmetic notification on your behalf via the official Quest 3+ system, ensuring accuracy and completeness to minimise the risk of rejection.

    What happens

    • Submitted online through Quest 3+, the only channel NPRA accepts
    • NPRA processing fee: RM50 per product (and per variant), paid to NPRA
    • Once NPRA confirms payment, the notification number is generated within 1–3 working days
  4. 4

    Approval & Support

    We follow up with NPRA, respond to any queries raised, and deliver your official NOT number — confirming your product is cleared for legal sale in Malaysia.

    After approval

    • The NOT number is shown on the Notification Note, not on the product label
    • A notification is valid for 2 years
    • Renew no later than 1 month before expiry (RM50 per product)
How long does it take? Typically 2 to 4 weeks end to end, including document preparation and ingredient checks. Once a complete Quest 3+ submission is made and NPRA confirms payment, the notification number is generated within 1–3 working days. Sources: NPRA Guidelines, Section 2 · NPRA FAQ
