country with the same manufacturer name.
b) The drug Brand name in other countries should be the same as origin
country with the same manufacturer name.
c) Private Companies are only authorized to import generic products
from prominent producers.
d) Drug should be produced in the manufacturer company and
“Contract Manufacturing” is not accepted.
e) Purchasing from reliable resources and Western European countries,
North America and Japan is preferred.
NB: In case purchasing is taking place from other resources mentioned in (e) the
following conditions should be taken into account:
I. GMP Certificate from Drug Regulatory Authority.
II. Any available international approvals.
III. Export to Euro countries, North America, Switzerland and Japan.
IV. Iran Drug and Medications Administration may ask for visiting the
GMP condition of the manufacturer after the emission of Import
Justification letter, stages and number of the importing justification
letter to Iran should be submitted to the Importer Company, in order
to print this number on the importing drug packages in Persian.
Stage II:
The subject drug will be registered for the importer company, and “IRC” will be

Summaries of LRM
1. Administrative Requirements
The application forms of the respective countries are required to be filled.
This application may vary from Asian region to African region and Latam
region. In Asian region they follow the limited requirements as per the Asian
regulations. The Asian dossiers are called ACTD. These countries do not
have the stringent regulation in line with highly regulated market. In rest of
the LRMs, company registration is a prerequisite for the registration of the
drugs. Almost all the countries in these regions require valid legal
documents like COPP, FSC & WHO GMP certificates. These documents
are also required to be notarized and legalized from the Embassy of the
respective countries.
countries are not much concerned about other stricter requirement like TSE/
BSE certificate, non GMO certificate, Residual solvents certificate etc.
5. Manufacturing Controls
Manufacturing Controls are divided into three types
(a) Manufacturing formula
There is a requirement of providing the details of ingredients used in the
formula with there quantity. The ingredients should comply with the current
edition of USP / EP. There is no reaction like IIG limit and GRAS listing in
line with HRM.
151
(b) Manufacturing procedure
A brief write up of the manufacturing procedure is given in the dossier. The
justification in the section of the manufacturing procedure is usually not
required in case of LRM. They also do not require exhibit BMR as well as
intended BMR in the dossier.
6. Microbiological controls
Microbiological controls do not play a very important role. There is no
concept of having a hold time study in this region. Other microbial tests like
MLT, BET & stability are required for parenterals and ophthalmic
preparations.
7. GMP Requirements.
These countries do not have any specific GMP guidelines. They also do not
carry out any GMP inspection. LRM countries accept the GMP certificate of
any leading agency like USFDA, MHRA, and TGA & HPFB. They only look
for WHO GMP certificate. It means GMP does not play a very important role
for these countries.
8. Bioequivalence requirements
In the LRM there is no specific guideline for BE studies. The BE studies are
carried out with any of the international innovator like US or EU. In certain
countries even if they go with comparative profiling data. There is no
concept of F1 or F2 factor in this region. There is no requirement of
proportionality similarity in this region.
152
9. Stability Requirements
In case of LRM the stability is required to be carried out at different storage
conditions. These are :
• Long term stability study (25°C±2/60±5% RH)/(30°C±2/75±5% RH)
• Intermediate stability study (30 °C ±2/65±5% RH)
• Accelerated stability study (40 °C ±2/75±5% RH)
