The Japanese Pharmaceutical Market is the second largest individual market in the world with a value of US $ 58.5 Billion. Recent changes in the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law (PAL) have facilitated direct supply by international Pharma companies. This combined with a lack of availability of many leading international products, creates an opportunity for companies wishing either to improve their market share or to supply Japan for the first time.
The Japanese Authorities never used to inspect pharma facilities outside of Japan. With the revision of the PAL this changed:
Overseas Pharma Production Facilities are now subject to the same inspection requirements as Japanese based facilities.
An Inspection is likely to be triggered by a change in an existing submission or by making a submission for a new product
Japan s PMDA is now the 4th most active inspectorate outside its own borders. Only US FDA /EMA & Brazil make more overseas inspections
