Grades in this division
Pharma compliance in Uganda
| Authority | National Drug Authority (NDA) |
|---|---|
| Seaports | Mombasa (via road/rail), Dar es Salaam (via road/lake) |
| Airports | Entebbe (EBB) |
| Dangerous goods | IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air |
Sea cargo is discharged at Mombasa or Dar es Salaam and moves inland under transit bonds, so transit documents must be in order before arrival. Many goods need a UNBS Certificate of Conformity under the pre-export verification programme. The National Drug Authority licenses importers and issues verification for APIs and medicines on each consignment. Controlled precursors and agrochemicals need separate permits, and NEMA covers environmental matters. Dangerous goods follow IMDG rules at sea and regional road rules inland.
