The beauty industry exhibition (COSMEX 2026) will take place November 3–5, 2026 at the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Center (BITEC), in hall EH 98. Each exhibition day starts at 10.00 and ends at 18.00, Bangkok time. Admission is free with advance online registration or on-site registration, but the event is intended for business visitors only.
The exhibition covers contract cosmetics manufacturing, packaging, production solutions, equipment and finished products. The program also includes business discussions and a masterclass. If you work in the beauty industry, choose the areas of interest according to your business needs.
Before traveling, check the schedule of the sessions you need and the admission terms. The organizer requires business attire, and the age rules on the official pages are inconsistent. Agree on any visit with a child with the organizer in advance: you cannot count on guaranteed admission.

What the program includes
The organizer of the beauty industry exhibition (COSMEX 2026) is the company RX BITEC. The exhibition areas include OEM contract manufacturing, cosmetic packaging, production solutions, equipment and finished products.
The subject covers different stages of working on a cosmetic product: production, packaging and the finished goods. However, admission is intended only for business visitors. So when preparing for your visit, it is useful to identify in advance the areas relevant to your work.
Hall 98 features a discussion block (COSMEX The Secret Chat). Its topics include the development of Thailand’s beauty industry (T-Beauty) and an overview of global industry prospects for 2027 (Global Beauty Outlook 2027). The program also lists a masterclass (Oil Your Way).
If you are going for a specific discussion or masterclass, check the time and participation terms before traveling. The session title does not tell you its length, the content of any practical part or whether separate sign-up is required.
Participation Terms
Admission is free with registration: you can register online in advance or on site during the exhibition. This condition is published on the official visitor page. Registration applies to attending the exhibition and does not change its professional focus.
The organizer states that the exhibition is open only to business visitors and asks attendees to dress in business attire. Choose appropriate clothing. Check the document requirements and items to bring with you with the organizer before your visit.
Admission of children requires advance confirmation. The participation policy allows registration only for visitors aged 15 and older. At the same time, the homepage requires visitors under 15 to have the consent of a parent or guardian before entry.
These wordings conflict. Parental consent alone does not confirm that a child under 15 can register. Get the organizer’s answer for the specific age before traveling.
If you want to choose places for your free time while combining a business visit with sightseeing, use the guide to Bangkok’s attractions. Plan your walks after confirming the schedule of the exhibition sessions you need.
