Service Description

If you import raw materials from non-EU countries, you must apply for an import permit.

You require an import permit to import basic substances of category 1 into the European Union (EU). You apply for this at the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM). The authorization will only be granted if you are established in the European Union.

The prerequisite for applying for an import permit is a permit to import basic substances of category 1.

The permit is only valid for one import operation and for a maximum duration of 6 months and for a maximum of two basic substances covered.

You must apply for an import permit when you bring the raw materials into the customs territory of the European Union. It is required if you use the raw materials as follows

  • for free circulation - even after outward processing

You do not need an import permit if you import category 1 raw materials for the following purposes:

  • unloading or transhipment only

  • to be placed under the EU external transit procedure

You also do not need to apply for a permit to import category 2, 3 and 4 precursors.
