Frequently Asked Questions About Regulatory Compliance in Canada

Cosmetics do not require pre-market approval in Canada, but you must file a Cosmetic Notification Form with Health Canada within 10 days of first sale. Your label, claims, and ingredients must still meet all safety and marketing regulations.

Natural Health Products include vitamins, minerals, and plant-based remedies, while OTC drugs include pharmaceuticals with active ingredients. The regulatory pathways differ in terms of licensing, testing, and compliance requirements.

A Drug Identification Number is required for therapeutic drugs, including disinfectants and OTC medications. It is issued by Health Canada once the product’s safety, efficacy, and quality have been reviewed and approved.

We evaluate your product’s chemical composition, determine the CEPA status of all the ingredients in your formulation (DSL, NDSL, New, Schedule 1, sNAC etc) and if notification is required, and prepare the full CEPA New Substance Notification submission package. We help avoid delays and ensure proper reporting.

PMRA approval involves data evaluation, e-indexed submission preparation, and ongoing communication with regulators. Dell Tech supports the full pesticide registration cycle, including product classification and portal navigation.

Importing veterinary drugs or health products requires classification under VDD, notification or registration, and compliant labeling. Dell Tech guides clients through every regulatory step required for Canadian distribution.
