Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

All sea shipments to Egypt must be registered in the Advance Cargo Information system through the NAFEZA platform before loading, and the ACID number has to appear on the invoice, packing list and bill of lading. Send us the ACID as soon as it is issued. Hazardous chemicals generally need approval from the EEAA and other competent ministries. APIs and excipients are controlled by the Egyptian Drug Authority, which may require manufacturer registration and batch analysis. Dangerous goods are declared under IMDG or IATA rules.

Questions

Impurity Reference Standards for Egypt

Do you ship impurity standards to Egypt?

Yes. We ship by sea to Alexandria and Port Said, by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.

Which documents come with a impurity standards shipment to Egypt?

Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to EDA (Egyptian Drug Authority) is agreed with you at quote stage.

How long does delivery to Egypt take?

Allow 12–20 days for ocean transit or 3–5 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.

How is the purity of an impurity standard determined?

Purity is usually assigned by HPLC area percentage, supported by structural confirmation from NMR and mass spectrometry. Where needed, water content, residual solvents or a mass balance approach are added. The methods used and the results for your lot are listed on the certificate of analysis that comes with the vial.

Can I use your impurity standards in place of official pharmacopoeial references?

Our standards are secondary or research materials, not official pharmacopoeial references. Many laboratories use them for method development, peak identification and routine testing, and keep official references for disputes or regulatory submissions where these are mandated. Your quality system and regulator decide which reference is acceptable for each test.
