  • 1.  Field Office Letter for Foreign Sites

    Posted 11-Jul-2023 13:46

    We are submitting an ANDA for a client. The client is US-based, but the drug product manufacturer is based in another country. For the Field Office letters, we will send one to the Field Office for the client's area; however, where would I send a letter for the foreign-based manufacturing company? Do we even need to send one for the Field Certification?

    Hi Ruth,  I've stopped sending the field notification letters since all now have access to the electronic submissions.

    Instead, I put the following in Section 1.3.2, Field Copy Certification: 

    "In accordance with 21 CFR 314.54(a)(4) and FDA Guidance for Industry: Providing Regulatory
    Submissions in Electronic Format-Certain Human Pharmaceutical Product Applications and
    Related Submissions Using the eCTD Specifications Guidance for Industry, February 2020, we
    ask that the Electronic Document Room forward a copy of this submission to the applicable FDA
    District Office(s)."

    Hope this helps!
