MVE by industry

MVE for cosmetics and personal care

The cosmetics industry imports active ingredients, finished products and packaging materials with valuations that include brand royalties, packaging designs provided to the manufacturer and dermatological testing costs. The MVE requires precise declaration of these concepts to avoid SAT observations. Camtom automates the entire process.

MVE challenges in your industry

1

Declaring cosmetic brand royalties as additions when they are a condition of sale

2

Valuing packaging designs and labeling provided to the manufacturer as technical assists

3

Including dermatological and safety testing costs required by COFEPRIS

4

Handling promotional sample imports with reduced or no commercial value

5

Documenting composition for NOM-141 compliance verification and its impact on classification

How Camtom solves it

1

Camtom automatically detects whether brand royalties qualify as additions under Art. 65 section III LA

2

Quantifies packaging designs provided and prorates them among imported units

3

Classifies dermatological testing costs as additions when they are a condition of sale

4

Generates MVEs for samples using secondary valuation methods when there is no transaction value

5

Links classification with composition to ensure consistency between NOM and valuation
