For cross-border logistics providers like COHO Supply Chain, staying compliant while maintaining efficiency is paramount.<\/p>\n<h2>Key Regulatory Changes in 2026<\/h2>\n<p>The updated regulations introduce stricter documentation requirements for lithium battery shipments, a category that affects everything from consumer electronics to medical devices. Shippers must now provide enhanced test summaries (UN 38.3) with every shipment, and the new rules mandate additional labeling for battery-powered devices.<\/p>\n<h2>Impact on Cosmetics &#038; Chemical Shipping<\/h2>\n<p>Cosmetics containing alcohol-based ingredients face new classification guidelines. Under the revised Globally Harmonized System (GHS) alignment, several common cosmetic ingredients now fall under hazmat classifications that previously applied only to industrial chemicals.<\/p>\n<h2>How COHO Is Adapting<\/h2>\n<p>COHO Supply Chain has updated its compliance protocols across all US warehouse locations \u2014 New York, Seattle, Los Angeles, and New Jersey. Our team now offers pre-shipment classification reviews for cosmetics and chemical products entering the US market, ensuring full compliance before cargo departs China.<\/p>\n<p>For B2B importers of cosmetics, supplements, and electronic goods, these changes mean that working with a logistics partner who understands both Chinese export procedures and US import regulations is more critical than ever.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2014 COHO Supply Chain Compliance Desk<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New IATA DGR regulations and GHS alignment changes affect cosmetics, chemical, and electronics importers.
