What this is

Failure to meet the renewal deadline for the Certificate of Good Practices may result in the imposition of a progressive penalty on the facility, based on the duration of the delay. The administration and collection of this penalty are the responsibility of the Directorate of Pharmacy, Medicines, and Laboratories (DPML), under the supervision of the Ministry of Public Health. The imposition of the penalty aims to encourage regulatory compliance and ensure that facilities maintain quality and safety standards. The facility must pay the prescribed amount to regularize its status and restore the validity of its authorization or certificate.

At the counter

What readers say they paid

The instrument sets a fee. At the counter it is not always that one. Here is what readers report, counted and summed up.

Nobody has reported an amount for this procedure yet.

If you have done it, say what you paid. It is published as counted figures, never as your account of it.

Report what I paid

No name, no number, no link. We refuse those.

We publish how many reports there are, the range and the median. Never your report on its own, never an official's name, never a named office.
