What this is
Dietary supplement approval is the process of validating the quality, safety, and compliance of a dietary supplement before it is sold on the market. Approval is granted by MINSANTE and results in the issuance of a Market Release Authorization (AMC). Companies or economic operators wishing to market dietary supplements within the national territory are subject to approval fees. These fees cover the scientific and technical review of the product, as well as the verification of its composition, safety, and compliance with nutritional standards. The fees also cover the issuance of the approval certificate.
