Condition text is present on 1393 of 1393 current records. An empty condition field is interpreted according to the record type above; it is never converted into an unrestricted-use claim.

China market context

Complete prohibited catalogues plus official-source workflow

Coverage version: NMPA 2021 banned catalogues plus dynamic IECIC List I/List II system current since 2025

All 1,284 banned raw materials and 109 banned plant/animal raw materials, plus the official workflow for the dynamic existing-ingredient inventory, other technical restrictions and new ingredients.

Verification checklist

  1. Search the current NMPA IECIC List I and List II by Chinese name and identity.
  2. Check prohibited/restricted and positive lists in the current Safety and Technical Standards.
  3. Review technical purpose, use history and any monitoring period.
  4. Confirm Chinese labelling, safety assessment and filing/registration duties.

Official market sources

Verification workflow and record completeness

Before using this result in a compliance decision

  1. Confirm that “北美黄连碱和北美黄连次碱以及它们 的盐类 — Hydrastine （CAS No 118-08-1）, hydrastinine （CAS No. 6592-85-4） and their salts” and every CAS/EC identifier refer to the material in your supplier specification.
  2. Search the current NMPA IECIC List I and List II by Chinese name and identity.
  3. Check prohibited/restricted and positive lists in the current Safety and Technical Standards.
  4. Review technical purpose, use history and any monitoring period.
  5. Confirm Chinese labelling, safety assessment and filing/registration duties.
  6. Document the source version and recheck the regulator before manufacture, notification or market placement.

Questions this page answers

This official record identifies the substance as prohibited for cosmetic use in the stated market scope. Do not rely on a formulation containing this identity until the cited source, effective date and exact substance match have been verified.

A prohibition entry may contain no separate condition text because the regulatory outcome is the prohibition itself. IECIC listing is not blanket approval; absence may require the new cosmetic ingredient route, and restrictions are checked separately.

The record cites NMPA 2021 Catalogue of Raw Materials Banned for Cosmetics, entry 793, source version NMPA Announcement No. 74 of 2021, effective 2021-05-26. Open the official source.

No. CAS helps resolve identity, but jurisdictions can classify the same substance differently and can apply different product scopes, limits, warnings and transition dates.
