🇿🇿 ValiPro: ZFDA, WHO GMP & EAC CTD Validation Services

Achieve Compliance and Secure Product Registration in Zanzibar with ZFDA-Ready Validation Documentation.

ValiPro provides expert Process Validation Protocol and Report services tailored for manufacturers targeting the Zanzibar market. Our documentation is built for full compliance with the rigorous standards of the Zanzibar Food and Drug Agency (ZFDA), the central regulatory authority. ZFDA strongly enforces WHO Good Manufacturing Practices (WHO GMP) Guidelines and mandates submissions using the Common Technical Document (CTD) format, in alignment with the wider East African Community (EAC) framework.

We specialize in supporting manufacturers of human and veterinary medicines, APIs, and food products, ensuring their validation packages secure timely ZFDA approvals, minimize review deficiencies, and facilitate market access within this key island economy.

🌟 Why ZFDA-Ready Validation is Crucial

The ZFDA is responsible for regulating the safety, quality, and efficacy of medicines, food, and medical devices entering Zanzibar. Although closely related to Tanzania's TMDA, the ZFDA maintains separate registration requirements, making tailored compliance essential.

• WHO GMP Mandate: The ZFDA's regulatory framework adopts and enforces WHO GMP guidelines. Your process validation documentation must conform precisely to these detailed international standards (e.g., WHO TRS Annex 3).

• CTD Submission Format: Product registration dossiers must be submitted in the Common Technical Document (CTD) format. We ensure your validation reports are correctly presented in Module 3 (Quality), aligning with the EAC regional structure.

• EAC Harmonization: While ZFDA issues separate licenses, its requirements closely follow the EAC guidelines, meaning compliance for ZFDA often facilitates future compliance across the region.

• GMP Inspection: Foreign manufacturing sites must hold a valid GMP certificate recognized by the ZFDA. Our robust, internationally-aligned validation documentation is essential evidence for demonstrating a state of control during the required assessment/inspection process.

🎯 ZFDA Compliance Focus: Who We Support

We work closely with manufacturers and their local representatives in Zanzibar who need:

• Pharmaceutical Exporters: Targeting human and veterinary drug registration with the ZFDA.

• GMP Conformance: Overseas facilities seeking ZFDA GMP Certification (based on WHO GMP) for importation permits.

• EAC CTD Quality Module: Preparation of the Quality Module ensuring that all manufacturing and control data, including process and cleaning validation, meets ZFDA expectations.

• Regulatory Responses: Firms addressing technical deficiencies or quality queries issued by ZFDA assessors during the dossier review process.
