Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Rwanda FDA issues import licences for APIs, medicines and certain hazardous chemicals, and declarations go through the ReSW electronic single window. Standards conformity is overseen by the Rwanda Standards Board, and REMA covers environmental matters. Sea cargo arrives by road from Dar es Salaam or Mombasa under transit documents, so the corridor and consignee should be agreed before booking. Dangerous goods must follow IMDG rules at sea and regional road rules on the inland leg.

Questions

APIs for Rwanda

Can Zemixal deliver APIs to Rwanda?

Yes. We ship by sea to Dar es Salaam (via road) and Mombasa (via road), 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 Rwanda?

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 Rwanda FDA (Rwanda Food and Drugs Authority) is agreed with you at quote stage.

How long does delivery to Rwanda take?

Allow 30–40 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.

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.
