CERTIFICATE TO PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCT (CPP)

A Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP) is an internationally recognized document that confirms the marketing status and regulatory compliance of a pharmaceutical product. FDA is issuing it to facilitate export of FDA-regulated products from the United States.

The CPP provides information about the product, such as the product name, dosage form, strength, manufacturer, and the regulatory status in the country of origin. It serves as evidence that the product is authorized for sale in the country of origin and meets the regulatory requirements for quality, safety, and efficacy.

Foreign governments are seeking official assurance that products exported from the United States to their countries can be marketed in the United States or meet specific U.S. regulations, such as current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) regulations. A foreign government may also require export certification as part of the process register or import a product into that country.

To obtain a CPP, the pharmaceutical manufacturer must apply to FDA where the product is authorized for sale. The application must include information about the product, its regulatory status, and the intended recipient country. FDA will review the application and issue the CPP if the product is deemed to follow their regulations.

It is important to note that the requirements for obtaining a CPP may vary between countries and regions. Some countries may require additional documentation or information, while others may not recognize the CPP at all.

Requirements to get the Certificate to Pharmaceutical Product (CPP)

  1. The manufacturing facility must have a valid drug establishment registration.
  2. All drugs must be listed with FDA.
  3. The drugs should meet all the drug labelling requirements as per 21 CFR 201.

PRIVATE LABEL DISTRIBUTOR

A firm that does not participate in the manufacture or processing of a drug but markets and distributes under its own trade/brand name, and labels a drug product made by someone else, is referred to as a Private Label Distributor or PLD.

The private label distributor takes on the responsibility of marketing, branding, and selling the products, while the manufacturer is responsible for producing and supplying the products.

PLDs do not have a registration or listing obligation for drugs since they do not manufacture or process in their facility.

They may elect to submit listing information for a drug they do not manufacture or process directly to the FDA by themselves or if they do not want to list, the manufacturer must submit the drug listings on behalf of the private label distributor.

If the PLD submit the listings under their NDC number, they assume full responsibility for compliance with all listing requirements.

To be a successful private label distributor, it is important to have strong relationships with manufacturers, a clear understanding of market trends and consumer preferences, and effective branding and marketing strategies.
