Description
AICIS published an enforceable undertaking with MCo Beauty Pty Ltd, commencing 9 February 2026. The undertaking relates to alleged unauthorised introductions of products containing industrial chemicals under the Industrial Chemicals Act 2019 framework. Commitments include quarantining relevant products (including where import volumes exceeded 100 kg in a registration year) pending destruction or re-export with evidence to AICIS within specified timeframes, and implementing documented compliance systems to prevent recurrence and ensure compliance with authorised introduction categories and related obligations. This signals AICIS enforcement expectations around introduction authorisation and internal compliance controls.
