USFDA Certification

Apply For USFDA Certification In Indore Looking for comprehensive certification solutions? Shark Certification offers a wide range of services, including FSSC, BRC, HALAL, KOSHER, NGMO, GMP, USFDA, and ORGANIC. Let us guide you through the process. About the U.S. FDA The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is a key federal agency under the United States Department of Health and Human Services. As part of the federal executive structure, the FDA plays a vital role in safeguarding public health by regulating a wide range of products including pharmaceuticals, food items, cosmetics, and medical devices. The FDA is responsible for the approval and oversight of: New pharmaceutical products, including biologics Food and feed additives for humans and animals Color additives used in consumables and cosmetics Select categories of medical equipment and devices To ensure that products entering the U.S. market meet stringent quality and safety standards, the FDA also conducts inspections in manufacturing units located outside the U.S., including facilities in India that export drugs and food items to the American market. These inspections are based on Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) standards set by the agency. Compliance and FDA Inspections During inspections, FDA officials assess the level of compliance with CGMP guidelines. If any deviations or concerns are observed, they are documented in Form 483. This form outlines specific areas of non-compliance and is discussed directly with the management team of the manufacturing facility. Alongside the Form 483, the agency provides an Establishment Inspection Report (EIR), indicating whether any further action is necessary. Companies are expected to respond to the Form 483 within 15 working days. While the response is not legally required, submitting a detailed reply outlining corrective actions is highly recommended to avoid escalation. If the response is inadequate or if violations are severe, the FDA may issue a Warning Letter. In critical cases, enforcement actions such as import alerts, product approval delays, or even revocation of manufacturing licenses can follow. The FDA Approval Process For a drug or high-risk medical device to receive FDA approval, the manufacturer must demonstrate that it is both safe and effective for its intended use. While the FDA itself does not conduct testing, it rigorously reviews the data and clinical trial results submitted by manufacturers. Approval is granted only after a thorough review by a multidisciplinary team of FDA experts—including statisticians, biologists, chemists, and clinicians. Why FDA Compliance Matters for Indian Manufacturers The U.S. remains one of the largest and most lucrative markets for pharmaceutical products. Over the past few decades, Indian pharmaceutical firms have gained a significant presence in the U.S. generics space. To maintain and grow this market share, ongoing compliance with FDA regulations is crucial. Shark Certification Pvt. Ltd. – Your FDA Compliance Partner At Shark Certification Pvt.

At Shark Certification Pvt. Ltd., we provide expert consulting and end-to-end support for obtaining FSC and PEFC certifications across India. What is FSC Certification? FSC Certification ensures that products sourced from forests—such as timber, paper, and packaging—are obtained responsibly and sustainably, with due consideration for the environment, communities, and economies. Businesses certified under FSC are allowed to use FSC labels, providing assurance to consumers and buyers that their products meet global sustainability standards. Why is FSC Certification Important in India? India’s growing export markets, especially in packaging, furniture, handicrafts, pulp & paper, and print, increasingly demand FSC-certified products. Global buyers now require FSC-labeled goods like corrugated boxes, paper bags, hang tags, and other wood-based materials.
