Shipping Pharmaceuticals from Colombo to Istanbul via Ocean Freight

Transporting temperature-sensitive Pharma products necessitates Validated insulated packaging, correct refrigerants, and maintained temperature monitoring. Select an express service where possible, stabilize gel packs, and Add a data logger in the carton to verify that medical drugs stayed within their labeled temperature range.

Fragile glass vials of pharmaceutical goods Should be packed in cell dividers with Top and bottom cushioning. Position trays inside a sturdy shipping box and block and brace with void-fill so nothing moves. For moisture-sensitive medical drugs, integrate this with moisture-barrier inner bags and desiccants.

International shipments of medical drugs typically Require a detailed commercial invoice, packing list, and any authorizations required by the importing country. Many destinations also require Certificates of Analysis, proof of GDP-compliant handling, and clear temperature instructions for cold-chain medicines. Verify requirements with your customs broker before shipping.

For moisture-sensitive pharmaceutical goods, Use moisture-proof inner liners plus desiccant sachets inside the packaging. Seal cartons tightly, avoid damaged boxes, and book transport options that minimize exposure to rain and high humidity, such as covered docks and climate-controlled linehaul for medical drugs.

High-value medical drugs Benefit from tailored cargo insurance that covers temperature excursions, breakage, and theft. Work with an insurer familiar with pharmaceutical goods, state the full replacement value, and store temperature and handling records so claims can be processed efficiently if something goes wrong.

Pharmaceuticals require temperature-controlled environments during transit to maintain efficacy. Special containers, such as refrigerated shipping containers, are often necessary to ensure products remain within required temperature ranges throughout the journey.

Shipments of pharmaceuticals must comply with both Sri Lankan export regulations and Turkish import regulations, which include obtaining necessary permits, ensuring products meet safety and quality standards, and providing complete documentation such as invoices, certificates of analysis, and health certificates.
