The Collegium of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) has approved the creation of a unified database for animal drugs identified through state supervision. This database will include information about quality, substandard, counterfeit, and falsified veterinary drugs within the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) member states.
New participants will join this process according to the procedure established by the Collegium’s decision No. 69 from May 30, 2023. The decision will come into effect on April 12.
In March 2024, new regulations for the circulation of veterinary drugs within the customs territory of the Eurasian Economic Union came into force. The document, approved by the EEC Council in January 2022, introduced unified requirements for the regulation of veterinary medicines; the registration procedures for these drugs and related procedures; the procedures for assessing the quality, safety, and effectiveness of veterinary products; and the criteria for their evaluation.
Additionally, it provides for a format of informational interaction in the exercise of state control over veterinary drugs circulation, as well as the registers and information databases of the EAEU in the field of veterinary medicines.
