Export documentation checklist for medical products
A checklist of the key documents required for exporting medical products from India, from commercial invoices to CE conformity declarations.
Complete and accurate documentation is essential for moving medical products across borders. Missing paperwork is one of the most common causes of customs delays and added costs. This checklist covers the key documents distributors should expect with every medical shipment from India.
Commercial invoice and packing list
Certificate of origin
CE / ISO 13485 manufacturer certificates
Declaration of conformity and HS codes
The commercial invoice and packing list form the foundation of any shipment, detailing the goods, quantities, and values. The certificate of origin confirms where the products were manufactured, which can affect duties and customs treatment in your country.
For medical products specifically, the manufacturer CE and ISO 13485 certificates and declaration of conformity should accompany the shipment, along with correctly confirmed HS codes. Depending on your destination, you may also need legalised or attested documents or product-specific test reports. We prepare and check this documentation for every order so it matches the goods exactly.
A shipment is only as smooth as its paperwork, and complete documentation prevents costly customs delays.
Keeping a clear documentation checklist for every order protects you from delays and disputes. We provide the full export documentation pack with each shipment; local product registration and import permits remain the distributor responsibility.
