Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

COFEPRIS controls imports of APIs, medicines, precursors and many toxic substances, generally through sanitary import permits and, for APIs, registration-linked documents and GMP evidence. SEMARNAT regulates hazardous materials and wastes with environmental impact. Workplace hazard communication follows NOM-018-STPS-2015, which calls for a GHS-harmonised SDS in Spanish, usually arranged by the importer. Importers must be listed in the Padrón de Importadores, and a Mexican customs broker files the pedimento. Your customs broker can confirm which sector registrations apply before the order ships.

Questions

Pharmaceutical Intermediates for Mexico

Do you ship pharma intermediates to Mexico?
Yes. We ship by sea to Manzanillo and Lázaro Cárdenas, 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 pharma intermediates shipment to Mexico?
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 COFEPRIS is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to Mexico take?
Allow 32–45 days for ocean transit or 4–7 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.
Can you scale an intermediate from grams to kilograms without changing the route?
For many listed intermediates the gram packs and the kilogram supply come from the same manufacturing route, which keeps the impurity profile consistent. Where scale-up needs a different route, we tell you before you commit and can provide comparison samples so your team can check the new material against the old.
How do you control isomer and enantiomer content?
Positional isomers are controlled by HPLC or GC methods suited to the compound, and chiral intermediates are tested by chiral HPLC to report enantiomeric excess. The limits that apply to your lot appear on the COA. If your process needs tighter limits, state them on the enquiry and we will confirm what can be met.
