UNDERSTAND YOUR REQUIREMENTS
Drug and cosmetic requirements differ across manufacturing, sale, distribution and import activities. Product classification, premises and the competent authority need to be identified before a reliable checklist can be prepared. We help organise this initial review and the agreed application records, with technical and professional requirements assessed for the particular case.
PLAN THE RIGHT SUPPORT
Identify the intended retail or wholesale activity and relevant state requirements.
Review product, premises and technical-document needs for the proposed operation.
Distinguish manufacturing from import and identify the appropriate authority.
Check the available licence, approved scope and proposed changes.
Describe exactly what the business proposes to do.
Identify the evidence and facility information relevant to review.
Plan the product and personnel information the route may require.
Separate state and central processes where applicable.
The correct route depends on the people, activity and location involved.
Confirm whether the proposed products fall within the relevant regulatory category.
Identify manufacturing, sale, distribution or import as applicable.
Review the facility and technical-personnel requirements for the specific route.
The final requirements depend on the applicable jurisdiction, current rules and the details of your case.
Choose the structure around your ownership and operating plans.
This is a starting checklist. Final requirements depend on your profile and the relevant filing procedure. Do not submit identity documents through the general enquiry form.
Confirm products, activity, location and intended scope.
Stage 1
Identify premises, personnel and technical-document requirements.
Stage 2
Organise the appropriate forms and supporting materials.
Stage 3
Address queries and any inspection requirements within the agreed scope.
Stage 4
Premises and technical gaps can affect preparation time.
The applicable authority’s scrutiny and inspection affect completion.
Operate only within the approved scope and applicable licence conditions.
UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE
| Activity | Preparation focus | What to establish |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturing | Products, facility and technical controls. | The competent authority and applicable manufacturing route. |
| Sale or distribution | Premises, product scope and personnel requirements. | The licence category relevant to the business model. |
| Import | Products, manufacturer and importer particulars. | The relevant central registration or permission requirements. |
One licence should not be assumed to cover every product, activity or premises. No operation should begin merely because an application has been submitted.
