🏛️ Regulatory Framework – Ghana
The regulatory system in Ghana mandates stringent quality control for regulated products, particularly for food, drugs, and consumer goods, requiring the COA as a primary document for both registration and import clearance.
Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) Ghana: The principal regulatory body responsible for regulating Food, Drugs (Pharmaceuticals), Cosmetics, Medical Devices, Household Chemical Substances, and Tobacco Products. The FDA requires COAs as part of the Product Registration Dossier and for Import Permit applications/Consignment Clearance. The COA is fundamental to the quality verification process.
Ghana Standards Authority (GSA): The national body for standardization, metrology, and certification. The GSA develops and implements Ghana Standards (GS) and oversees the mandatory Conformity Assessment Programme (G-CAP) for certain imported goods. The COA is a key document for G-CAP verification.
National Public Health Reference Laboratory (NPHRL) / FDA: Responsible for conducting quality control testing on products, including sampling and testing of imported regulated goods at the ports of entry, for which the accompanying COA serves as the benchmark.
International/Regional Standards: Ghana adheres to regional and international standards:
BP / USP / EP / Ph. Int.: Primary standards referenced for pharmaceutical quality.
Codex Alimentarius: Referenced for food safety and quality standards.
ECOWAS/AU harmonization: Regional integration efforts often influence quality and documentation requirements.
