Food supplements, cosmetics and borderline products: PPB fees, timelines and our charges
PPB registration of health supplements, cosmetics and borderline products in Kenya.
Food supplements, cosmetics and borderline products are grouped under one PPB fee category. Borderline products are items that could be classed as a supplement, cosmetic or medicine, and the PPB confirms the correct route on review.
Imported products need a local representative to hold the registration. A short classification or gap review up front confirms the route and avoids a rejected submission.
