The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) requires manufacturers to register drug listings for every finished drug product, Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) or bulk ingredient for distribution or further processing in the US. During the electronic drug listing process, products are assigned a National Drug Code (NDC) and associated in the FDA database with each manufacturer’s labeler code(s). The FDA relies on the registration and listing information for administering programs including: post-marketing surveillance; potential user fee assessments; counter-terrorism; monitoring drug shortages and availability; and determining products that are being marketed without an approval application.
The requirement for organizations that manufacture their product(s) under their own brand is straightforward. Contract manufacturing (CMO), however, must must file a drug listing with the FDA for each product manufactured under its own NDC labeler code, as well as a separate drug listing using the labeler code of the private label distributor (PLD).
WHEN TO REGISTER?
Registration is required within 5 days of introducing product into commercial distribution. Annual renewal of registration must occur between October 1 and December 31 of each year.
BLANKET NO CHANGE CERTIFICATION FOR PRODUCT LISTING DATA
Within the new regulations adopted in 2016, there is now an annual requirement to update your listings or certify that no changes have occurred for products that were not initially listed or updated during the past calendar year - January 2017 to the present. The period for Product Listing Certification using the Product Listing Certification SPL submission is October 1st through December 31st. Any product listing that is required to be certified but not certified, may be considered inactive and removed from the NDC Directory and other publications of Listing data.
