Mawien Atem Mawien, secretary general of DFCA, said the ban seeks to protect the people of South Sudan from being exposed to harmful chemicals used in manufacturing skin bleaching cosmetics.
"All the whitening or bleaching creams are prohibited for import without any approval from DFCA, of particular interest are those containing mercury and hydroquinone," Mawien told reporters on Tuesday.
The regulatory body ordered all cosmetic dealers in the country to obtain new import licenses in an effort to regulate their business.
"It is very clear that cosmetics are being used in South Sudan without any discrimination despite the fact that they contain so many chemicals," Mawien said.
"No cosmetics will be brought to the Republic of South Sudan without the approval of DFCA. Anything outside the right channeled will be deemed illegal," he added.
