COPP for Taiwan: 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.
Drug regulators across South-East and South Asia register many Indian medicines and typically ask for the regulatory certificates in a legalised form.
Authorities, banks and business partners in Taiwan usually ask for a legalised COPP for new product registration with the drug regulator, renewal or variation of an existing registration or tender submissions by the local distributor.
The COPP issued in India is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Taipei Economic and Cultural Center (TECC) in New Delhi.

It depends on the schedules of the chamber, the MEA and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Center (TECC) at the time. We confirm a timeline in writing before you courier the COPP, and can plan around shipment or registration deadlines.
