Overview

When you need a legalised certificate of analysis in China

A certificate of analysis (COA) reports the test results for a batch of product against its specification. Regulators and buyers abroad use it to check quality for registration samples, tenders and each consignment. The certificate of analysis is issued by the manufacturer's quality control department or an accredited testing laboratory for a specific batch.

Drug regulators across South-East and South Asia register many Indian medicines and typically ask for the regulatory certificates in a legalised form.

In China, pharmaceutical dossiers are reviewed by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). Legalised documents from India are typically part of the file for registration samples for regulators, batch release for each shipment and tender quality compliance.

A certificate of analysis issued in India is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Embassy of China in New Delhi.

Although China joined the Apostille Convention in 2023, in our processing experience Indian commercial documents for China are still legalised through the Chinese Embassy, so that is the route we follow.

Process

The China process for an Indian certificate of analysis

    WhatsApp a scan of the certificate of analysis and tell us who in China will receive it. We check it and reply with the steps, timeline and price.

  2. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    The certificate of analysis is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, which checks your company's details and the signatory before stamping it.

  3. MEA attestation

    The Ministry of External Affairs in New Delhi verifies the chamber's stamp and adds its attestation.

  4. China Embassy legalisation

    The Embassy of China in New Delhi adds its legalisation stamp. This is the final stamp needed in India.

  5. Tracked return

    We courier the legalised document back by Blue Dart or another tracked courier, or you collect it from our Delhi office.

What to send us

  • Original certificate of analysis for each batch
  • Certified Chinese translation, if the authority in China asks (we arrange it)
  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Laboratory accreditation details, if the buyer asks
  • Matching invoice or product registration reference

Avoid rejection

  • Batch number, product name and dates must match the invoice and labels.
  • Check that the company name is spelt the same way on every document; the China Embassy compares names across the set.
  • Some regulators want the COA from an accredited lab; check before testing.
  • Use the final signed COA, not a draft report.
