Details
From 1 January 2025, the EU Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD) will no longer apply in Northern Ireland. EU FMD safety features will therefore not apply to parallel import licences. PLPI licence holders must still ensure packs are decommissioned correctly and cannot re-enter the EU supply chain.
