Abstract:

PharmaSecure is a leading provider in the serialisation of pharmaceuticals and has worked extensively with local and global manufacturers in India and other nations. This paper describes the 2011-2012 Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) requirements for bar-coding and serialisation on pharmaceutical packages exported from India. Serialisation is introduced, the DGFT Mandate is described in detail, and specific recommendations are given for complying with the mandate, based on PharmaSecure’s experience of putting in place coding that will protect 1.5 billion packs exported from India this year. Finally, new applications of serialisation and DGFT serialisation in particular are described.
