The transaction must be domiciled with an Algerian bank before shipment, and the domiciliation reference should appear on the commercial documents. Some goods are subject to periodic restrictions or programme approvals, so check the current position for each product. Hazardous chemicals and explosive precursors need prior authorisation from the competent ministries. APIs for local production are regulated by ANPP, the national pharmaceutical products agency. Documents are commonly expected in French. Dangerous goods are declared under IMDG or IATA rules. Confirm every requirement with your broker shortly before ordering, because the rules change frequently.
