About pharmaceutical consulting, Ghana FDA registration, and working with us.
Ghana FDA drug registration typically takes 12 to 24 months, depending on product type, dossier completeness, and registration category. Incomplete documentation attracts multiple FDA queries that extend timelines. Well-prepared dossiers — guided by SCS Pharma Consult — typically face fewer queries and faster approvals.
A dossier requires a Common Technical Document (CTD), a Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP) from the country of manufacture, GMP certification, English product labelling, and safety/efficacy data. Requirements differ between pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and supplements. We prepare complete, submission-ready dossiers to Ghana FDA standards.
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) ensures products are consistently made to defined specifications. Ghana's FDA requires GMP certification for all registered manufacturers and importers. Non-compliance can mean product rejection, import suspension, or licence revocation. We run GMP gap analyses and audit preparation to help facilities pass inspections.
Foreign companies must register their products with the Ghana FDA under the Public Health Act, 2012 (Act 851), appoint a local authorised representative, and obtain the relevant import, wholesale or pharmacy licences (premises licensing falls under the Pharmacy Act, 1994, Act 489). We provide end-to-end market entry advisory — regulatory strategy, entity structuring, distributor identification, and supply chain setup — for international manufacturers.
Four core pillars: (1) Regulatory & Compliance Advisory — FDA registration, GMP audits, dossiers; (2) Business Structuring — pharmacy setup, import licences, corporate structuring; (3) Supply Chain Optimisation — procurement, cold chain, logistics; and (4) Enterprise & Investor Advisory — investment analysis and due diligence for the African market.
Yes. We work with manufacturers, distributors, and investors across West Africa (ECOWAS), East Africa, and internationally. Many clients are based in India, Europe, China, and the United States and seek guidance to register and distribute in Ghana and the wider African market. We provide remote consulting alongside in-country representation.
