doctor's certificate

Hello. This is Koseki from the Otemachi office. （＾－＾）ノ　

　

Today, we will talk about "Doctor's Certificate", which is a frequently asked question.

　

When applying for a new license for manufacturing and marketing of cosmetics,

A common document that must be submitted is the applicant's doctor's medical certificate.

　

This refers to ``not being mentally impaired or addicted to narcotics, cannabis, opium, or stimulants.''

A medical certificate issued after receiving a diagnosis from a doctor.

If you are applying as a corporation, you will need to submit information for <officers conducting business>.

　

<For officers conducting business>

<Representative Director> and <Director in charge of pharmaceutical affairs> fall under this category.

　

If <Representative Director> and <Director in charge of pharmaceutical affairs> are the same person,

It is OK to submit a medical certificate for only one person.

　

In addition, if you are applying for cosmetics manufacturing and manufacturing/sales business at the same time,

You can attach the original medical certificate to one application and omit it to the other application.

　

This diagnosis is a somewhat special diagnosis, and may not be available even at major hospitals in urban areas.

We recommend that you check in advance whether you are eligible for this diagnosis before going for a diagnosis.

　

note that···

If the <Representative Director> satisfies certain conditions, such as residing overseas and not being involved in pharmaceutical affairs,

Instead of submitting a medical certificate, you may be able to submit a self-reported document called a statement of explanation.

　

Who will be involved in pharmaceutical affairs and how, and what kind of organizational structure will be used to divide the duties?

This will be a key point when applying.
