Quick Answer (for busy buyers)
Here’s the buyer-first summary. If your brand name is on the label, you usually act as the responsible person and must ensure the listing is submitted and kept current.
- For eye care OEM/ODM projects, we typically move into sampling after scientific product selection and the scheme is confirmed, then we align formula proofing and packaging direction before you confirm the sample.
- In practice, the sampling window often maps to key internal steps such as raw material production (about 5-7 working days) plus raw material testing (about 5 working days), with packaging-related checks (about 3 days) where applicable.
- Packaging is usually the biggest variable for timing.
- External packaging orders often take about 10-30 working days (e.g., single box ~15 days, set box ~20 days).
- Inner packaging also varies (glass bottle ~15 days, acrylic bottle ~30 days, tube/mask pouch ~15 days).
- If you need custom packaging for sampling, we can plan a staged approach (formula sample first, then full-pack sample).
- MOQ guidance: most items start at 1000-3000 units (simpler items like masks may start at 1000; complex skincare sets often 3000).
- After sample approval, bulk production lead time is commonly 10-20 working days.
- We can support documentation and third-party testing coordination, but we do not guarantee regulatory outcomes.
