Permission to import and sell a product

[Wolf]

Hi all,

I am planing to import a cosmetic product. I want to sell it to chain stores like Clicks.

This product is already approved by UK medical authorities for general counter sales.

Now my questions:

• Must this product be approved by any SA institution as well? If yes, where?

• What kind of license must be optained that allows me to import and sell the product?

• How would the import procedure look like? What are the costs involved?

Thank you for your help!
