When you need a legalised GMP certificate in Costa Rica
A GMP or WHO-GMP certificate confirms that a manufacturing plant follows good manufacturing practice. Foreign regulators treat it as core evidence of quality when they register Indian medicines, devices, cosmetics and food supplements. GMP and WHO-GMP certificates are issued by Indian drug regulatory authorities after inspecting the manufacturing site.
Regulators in Latin America register Indian medicines and commonly ask for apostilled regulatory documents with a Spanish or Portuguese translation.
Companies dealing with Costa Rica are most often asked for a legalised GMP certificate during product registration with drug regulators, as well as for plant approval by importing authorities and tender qualification.
The GMP certificate issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Costa Rica accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
