Regulatory documentation for pharma exports
Introduction
Pharmaceutical exports offer huge opportunities for growth, but one misstep in regulatory documentation can stall your shipment, cause compliance issues, or even lead to rejection in the destination country.
Understanding and preparing regulatory documentation for pharma exports is essential for smooth international trade. At Salvavidas Pharmaceutical, we ensure every document meets global requirements so your products reach the market without delays.
Why Regulatory Documentation Matters in Pharma Exports
Pharmaceutical products are strictly regulated to ensure patient safety, quality, and efficacy. Regulatory documentation acts as proof that your product complies with both Indian regulations and the importing country’s requirements.
Without proper documents, you risk:
- Delays in customs clearance
- Product rejections or recalls
- Legal penalties
- Damaged business relationships

2. Certificate of Analysis (CoA)

3. Free Sale Certificate (FSC)
Declares that the product is widely available in the home market.

A comprehensive file containing formulation details, manufacturing process, stability data, and quality control measures.
