Requirements for compliance

  • NEW pharmaceutical facilities in China were required to be compliant with the updated Chinese GMP guidelines (2011 version) within 5 years.
  • When the 2011 new guidelines were published, established facilities had up to 5 years to become compliant (e.g., to comply with new Chinese GMP guidelines within 5 years of 1 March 2011).
