GMP certificate for Norway: what and why
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.
European regulators and importers may ask for apostilled regulatory documents when an Indian manufacturer supplies medicines, APIs or devices.
In Norway, a legalised GMP certificate is typically requested for product registration with drug regulators; it is also used 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. Norway accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
