COPP for Slovakia: what and why
A Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (COPP) confirms that a medicine is licensed in India, made in a GMP-compliant plant and sold by a named licence holder. It follows the WHO format, so drug regulators abroad can rely on it when they register an Indian product. The COPP is issued by CDSCO jointly with the State Licensing Authority, under the WHO Certification Scheme.
European regulators and importers may ask for apostilled regulatory documents when an Indian manufacturer supplies medicines, APIs or devices.
Companies dealing with Slovakia are most often asked for a legalised COPP during new product registration with the drug regulator, as well as for renewal or variation of an existing registration and tender submissions by the local distributor.
The COPP issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Slovakia accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

What to send us
- Request letter on company letterhead (we share the format)
- Free sale certificate and product list, if the regulator asks for the full dossier
- Copy of the drug manufacturing licence and WHO-GMP certificate
- Original COPP for each product (one original per country)
Avoid rejection
- Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
- Check that the importing country printed on the COPP matches the country you are legalising for.
- Keep product name, strength and pack size identical across the COPP, GMP certificate and free sale certificate.
- Legalise COPPs well before expiry; regulators reject certificates close to their end date.
