News:
- The Commerce Ministry has extended the date for implementation of track and trace system for exports of drug formulations to 15th November 2018
Important Facts
- The track and trace system is the bar-coding system for export of drug formulations
- The manufacturer or the exporter of drug formulations would have to print the barcode as per global standard at primary, secondary and tertiary packaging levels
- This would help tracking and tracing of the products and consequently minimize the chances of genuine medicine being considered fake or sub-standard
- The implementation of track and trace system applies to both non-SSI (small scale industry) and SSIs manufactured drugs.
