【EXPERT Q&A】For pharmaceutical exports to the United States, after obtaining FDA certification, is there still a need for an import permit from the U.S.?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: To export pharmaceuticals to the United States, in addition to obtaining FDA certification, one must also comply with other U.S. import regulations. After receiving FDA approval, the drug also needs to adhere to the import regulations set by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Sometimes, this may involve obtaining additional import permits or certificates, but the specific requirements can vary based on the type of product and specific circumstances. Before shipping the drug to the U.S., ensure that you are familiar with and compliant with all relevant regulations. Collaborating with local import/export agents might be helpful as they are typically knowledgeable about these regulations and can provide specific guidance.
