Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Medicines, APIs and controlled substances need sanitary registration or import licences from MINSA's Dirección Nacional de Farmacia y Drogas, and precursor chemicals face additional control. MiAmbiente covers environmental aspects. Goods landed in the Colón Free Zone for re-export follow a separate regime from goods cleared for the Panamanian market, so the consignee and documents must reflect the intended use. Dangerous goods must be declared under IMDG or IATA rules. Confirm the import route with your broker before booking.

Questions

APIs for Panama

Do you ship APIs to Panama?
Yes. We ship by sea to Balboa and Manzanillo (Colón), 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 APIs shipment to Panama?
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 MINSA – Dirección Nacional de Farmacia y Drogas is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to Panama take?
Allow 30–42 days for ocean transit or 3–6 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.
What information should I include when requesting an API quotation?
State the molecule, required pharmacopoeia and edition, quantity, intended use and destination country. Mention any special needs such as micronised particle size, a specific polymorph or limits on residual solvents. If your regulator needs manufacturer documents, list them too, so we can confirm availability before pricing.
Can you supply small API samples for formulation trials?
Many APIs can be supplied in development quantities for pre-formulation and stability work. The available sample size depends on the manufacturer and on how the molecule is regulated. Share your project stage and the amount you need, and we will advise what can ship as a sample and what requires a full commercial order.
