Compliance & documentation
Audit-ready, not "just trust us"
Every claim backed by process documentation, accredited testing, and a clear paper trail designed for EU pharmaceutical regulatory expectations.
Compliance framework
Four pillars of documentation
Structured compliance across certification, testing, QP support, and regulatory pathway — each pillar designed for the way EU pharmaceutical buyers actually evaluate supply partners.
GACP Certification
Good Agricultural and Collection Practices certification covering the complete cultivation cycle — from propagation and environmental management through harvesting, drying, and post-harvest handling. Our GACP framework aligns directly to the due diligence requirements EU pharmaceutical importers face during supplier qualification.
Includes
- Documented SOPs for every cultivation stage
- Environmental monitoring and control records
- Input traceability (genetics, nutrients, substrates)
- Pest management protocols and deviation records
- Annual internal and external audit cycle
Certificate of Analysis
Batch-level COAs from accredited laboratories covering the full analytical panel required for EU pharmaceutical cannabis. Each certificate includes method references, measurement uncertainty, and pass/fail criteria aligned to pharmacopoeia standards.
Includes
- Cannabinoid potency (THC, CBD, CBG, CBN, THCA, CBDA)
- Full terpene profiling (30+ compounds)
- Pesticide residue screening (EU limits)
- Heavy metals (Pb, Hg, Cd, As)
- Microbiology (TVC, yeast, mold, bile-tolerant gram-negatives)
- Moisture content & water activity
QP Release Support
Documentation structured to support Qualified Person release in destination markets. Complete chain-of-custody from cultivation through export, with batch linkage, process records, and deviation history designed to satisfy QP review requirements.
Includes
- Batch production records with process parameters
- Complete chain-of-custody documentation
- Deviation and CAPA reports (if applicable)
- Stability data and storage condition records
- Method validation references for analytical work
- QP-ready batch summary format
Regulatory Pathway
End-to-end regulatory coordination including Thai export permits, import license consultation for destination markets, and structured documentation packs designed to reduce compliance friction across the supply chain.
Includes
- Thai export permit coordination
- Import license documentation support
- Destination market regulatory context
- INCB requirement alignment
- Customs documentation preparation
- Regulatory change monitoring
Documentation pack
Standard deliverables with every shipment
A complete documentation set accompanies or precedes every commercial shipment — structured for QP review and regulatory filing.
Qualification process
From first contact to compliant supply
A structured five-step process designed for pharmaceutical procurement workflows — no surprises, clear milestones, documented at every stage.
Supplier Qualification
We provide a complete qualification pack — GACP certificate, facility documentation, SOPs overview, and reference COAs — so your procurement and QA teams can evaluate us efficiently.
Sample & Documentation Review
Representative samples shipped with full COA packs. Your team tests against internal specifications while reviewing our documentation structure and process records.
Audit & Alignment
On-site or remote audit support. We address findings, align documentation formats to your requirements, and establish agreed quality specifications for production batches.
Production & Release
Each production batch follows documented SOPs, undergoes full analytical testing, and is released only after specification verification and QA sign-off.
Export & Delivery
Complete export documentation, licensed logistics coordination, and real-time shipment tracking. All batch documentation accompanies or precedes the physical shipment.
Standards we align to
Medicinal cannabis herbal starting material is produced under GACP at cultivation; GMP applies when material is further processed into dosage forms — Verdant holds GACP certification as a cultivator, not GMP certification as a manufacturer. Our documentation framework aligns to EU expectations including GACP (WHO/EMA), European Pharmacopoeia monographs for herbal drugs, and INCB obligations for international trade. We reference GMP Annex 7 context for partners who finish material under GMP downstream — that is their certification scope, not ours.
