Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Importers need a SARS customs client code, and declarations are normally lodged by a clearing agent. Chemical imports fall under environmental rules administered by the DFFE, and the Hazardous Chemical Agents Regulations govern classification in the workplace. ITAC permits apply to certain listed goods. APIs and scheduled substances need SAHPRA permits, and suppliers are expected to provide GMP evidence. Controlled precursors require separate authorisation. Dangerous goods must comply with IMDG or IATA rules.

Questions

Impurity Reference Standards for South Africa

Can Zemixal deliver impurity reference standards to South Africa?
Yes. We ship by sea to Durban and Cape Town, 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 South Africa?
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 SAHPRA is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to South Africa take?
Allow 16–22 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.
