Why Djibouti asks for a legalised free sale certificate
A free sale certificate (FSC), or certificate of free sale, states that a product is freely sold in India. Importing regulators use it to approve products without repeating every test. Depending on the product, the free sale certificate is issued by drug control authorities (medicines and cosmetics), the medical device regulator, food or export authorities, or the DGFT for many unregulated goods.
Africa is one of the largest markets for Indian generic medicines, and national regulators generally require legalised COPPs, GMP and free sale certificates for product registration.
In Djibouti, a legalised free sale certificate is typically requested for product registration; it is also used for import permits and distributor appointments.
A free sale certificate 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 Djibouti in New Delhi.
