Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP)

A WHO-format certificate issued by the exporting country's regulator, used to support foreign marketing authorizations.

What it means

The Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product follows the WHO Certification Scheme and attests to a product's registration status, GMP compliance, and labeling in the exporting country. LATAM regulators require an apostilled or consular-legalized CPP, translated by a sworn or authorized translator into the local language.

Why it matters for LATAM submissions

A missing apostille or a non-sworn translation of the CPP is one of the most common causes of a marketing authorization stopping at intake.
