Any drug brokering activity carried out by a person located in France must be declared to the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé.
Persons involved in the brokering of medicinal products must ensure that the medicinal products brokered are covered by a marketing authorisation or registration under articles L. 5121-13 or L. 5121-14-1. When the brokering activity is carried out on behalf of the State, it may relate to the medicinal products mentioned in II and III of article L. 5124-8.
The procedures for the declaration and practice of persons engaging in brokering activities are laid down by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.
