🇪🇪 ValiPro: SAM, EU GMP & EMA Process Validation Services for Estonia

Ensure Seamless Access to the Estonian and European Market with Validation Documentation Aligned to EU/EMA Guidelines.

ValiPro provides expert Process Validation Protocol and Report services specifically designed for manufacturers targeting Estonia and the wider EU/EEA market. Our documentation is built for full compliance with the rigorous standards enforced by the State Agency of Medicines (SAM), which implements the pharmaceutical legislation of the European Union.

Key compliance pillars include strict adherence to EU Good Manufacturing Practice (EU GMP) Guidelines (EudraLex Volume 4) and the mandatory submission of the registration dossier in the Common Technical Document (CTD) format, specifically following the EMA scientific guidelines.

🌟 Why EU/SAM Validation is Crucial for Estonia

Market authorization in Estonia is achieved through EU-level procedures, meaning your validation documents must satisfy the highest European standards.

• EU GMP Mandate & Inspection: The SAM enforces EU GMP guidelines. Foreign manufacturing sites must hold a valid GMP certificate, and the SAM participates in the EU/EEA inspection network. Validation documentation must align with EudraLex Volume 4, Annex 15 (Qualification and Validation), covering the entire process lifecycle.

• CTD/eCTD Submission: Registration is handled via the Centralized, Decentralized (DCP), or Mutual Recognition Procedure (MRP). All require the dossier to be submitted in the Common Technical Document (CTD) format, increasingly using the electronic eCTD structure. Process Validation reports are mandatory within Module 3 (Quality).

• EMA Scientific Guidelines: The SAM uses the scientific guidelines published by the EMA (Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use - CHMP) as the basis for assessing quality data. Specifically, process validation must follow the EMA's "Guideline on process validation for finished products" which incorporates the modern, lifecycle approach described in ICH Q8, Q9, and Q10.

• Decentralized Procedure (DCP): Manufacturers often choose Estonia as the Reference Member State (RMS) for the DCP, which streamlines approval across multiple EU countries. Serving as the RMS demands an impeccably compliant dossier and robust validation data.

🎯 Compliance Focus: Who We Support

We work with manufacturers targeting the Estonian market via the European procedures:

• EU Exporters: Targeting human and veterinary drug registration through the Centralized, DCP (with Estonia as RMS or Concerned Member State), or MRP routes.

• EU GMP Audit Readiness: Foreign facilities preparing for an EU GMP inspection by the SAM or another EU inspectorate.

• CTD Module 3 Quality: Firms needing expert preparation of Module 3, including both traditional and modern Continuous Process Verification (CPV) validation approaches.

• Lifecycle Approach: Companies implementing the ICH Q8/Q9/Q10 concepts (Pharmaceutical Development, Quality Risk Management, Pharmaceutical Quality System) into their validation protocols.
