By way of derogation from Article L. 4221-1 and until 31 December 2025, the Directors General of the Regional Health Agencies of Guadeloupe, Guyana and Martinique and the State Representative in Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon may authorise a pharmacist who is a national of a country other than those mentioned in 2° of the same Article L. 4221-1 or who holds a pharmacy degree, regardless of the country in which the degree was obtained, to practise in a healthcare facility located within their respective territorial jurisdictions. This authorisation is issued by decree, for a fixed period, after obtaining the opinion of a territorial practice authorisation committee.
A territorial commission for authorisation to practise is set up:
1° For French Guyana and Martinique;

A decree in the Conseil d’Etat shall set the conditions for the implementation of this article, in particular:
a) The procedures for drawing up the order fixing the number and territorial distribution of professionals authorised to benefit from the provisions of this article;
b) The composition and operation of the territorial commissions;
c) The healthcare structures within which these professionals may practice;
d) The procedures for implementing and monitoring these derogatory practice authorisations.
