If manufacturing practices are considered to be GMP compliant and the CAPA proposal meets requirements, the Thai FDA will issue a GMP Certificate to an overseas manu- facturer for the purpose of product registration. The same GMP Certificate may be used for other product registration applications if they have the same scope/type of manufac- turing during the validity of the GMP Certificate, which is normally three years after the date of issuance. The GMP Certificate of an overseas manufacturer must therefore be renewed every three years.
