WHO-GMP (WHO Good Manufacturing Practice)
A manufacturing-quality certification aligned to World Health Organization standards, widely accepted across Tier 2 and Tier 3 export markets.
Definition
WHO-GMP certification confirms a manufacturing facility meets World Health Organization good manufacturing practice standards. It is the baseline quality credential accepted by most Tier 2 and Tier 3 destination-country regulators, though Tier 1 markets (US, EU, UK, Japan) require their own plant inspection (USFDA, EU-GMP) — WHO-GMP alone is not sufficient there.
Why It Matters
Confirming which certification a specific manufacturing partner and product line actually holds is a standard part of every quotation, since WHO-GMP status does not automatically extend across every product a manufacturer makes.
