Application to withdraw a manufacturer’s/importer’s authorisation for veterinary medicines

The withdrawal of a Manufacturers Authorisation may be initiated:

  • At the request of the authorisation holder.
  • If the HPRA's Compliance department receives information concerning other business-related situations which might necessitate the withdrawal of an authorisation. For example, information that a company is going into liquidation.
  • If the MIA holder has allowed their authorisation to expire, if an expiry date is set, as it is no longer applicable to their current operational activities. This situation may be noted by an inspector during inspection.
