The primary objective of this guideline is to ensure that the PIL is written in clear and intelligible terms for the patient and is clearly legible. Applicants are requested to follow the format stipulated in this guideline.

PILs for evaluation should be typed using double line spacing. The print quality of the PIL should be clear so as to enable duplication at a later stage for inclusion into various documents, during the evaluation and registration process. The spelling and grammar in the text of the PIL should be checked thoroughly before submission of the application.

Although PILs should be submitted in English (United Kingdom) for evaluation purposes, it is currently a regulatory requirement that a PIL should be made available to consumers in English and in at least one other official language.

It is the responsibility of the product license holder to ensure the quality, safety and efficacy of the product before the submission, as well as the preparation of the dossier in the right eCTD format. This responsibility lasts even after the approval and as long as the product is licensed to be placed in the Qatari market. The local agent is the one responsible for the product in Qatar and he is the only authorized body to deal with MOPH as per Qatari law. However, PDCD has the right to communicate directly with the product license holder in certain cases. The product license holder should inform PDCD through his local agent with any variation on the product, as well as any emerged safety signal, as soon as possible.

Any local Qatari organization has the right to register itself as an agent for pharmaceutical companies after fulfilling MOPH requirements. The local agent should ensure the registration of the product license holder; known as marketing authorization holder in most cases (MAH), as well as the manufacturing sites before submission of any product application as per MOPH requirements.
