Product manufacturers in South Africa, particularly in Johannesburg, Cape Town, are increasingly targeting the US market. With key products such as wine, citrus fruits, rooibos tea, South Africa has significant potential in the American market. However, to legally introduce products into the US, companies must strictly comply with US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. This article details the FDA requirements related to this topic for South Africa businesses.
Risk factors and how PREDICT assigns scores to shipments
FDA regulations in this area apply to all foreign manufacturing facilities that wish to market products in the US. For product manufacturers in Johannesburg and Cape Town, compliance is not only a legal requirement but also a prerequisite for maintaining business relationships with US import partners. If requirements are not met, shipments can be held at the port, denied entry, or even placed on the FDA import alert list.
Building a favorable compliance history to lower risk scores
To export product to the US, South Africa companies need to: register their facility with the FDA, obtain a DUNS number from Dun & Bradstreet, appoint a US Agent with a US address, and ensure product labels comply with FDA regulations. For products such as wine, citrus fruits, rooibos tea, additional requirements may apply depending on the specific product type. FDABridge helps South Africa companies complete the entire process.
