This period starts on the day when the application is considered as complete.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Criteria for granting parallel trade permits<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Same Manufacturer<\/strong> for both the reference product and the parallel traded product; if different, information is provided from the MS of origin that this manufacturer operates as an \u201cassociated undertaking\u201d or \u201cunder license\u201d on behalf of the manufacturer of the reference product,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Same or equivalent packaging size, same material and equivalent form,<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Same Specifications, content of a.s., safeners and synergists, and type of formulation,<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Coformulants either identical or equivalent.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">IMPORTANT!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In order to allow MS to evaluate the parallel trade permit application within the timeframe, 2 categories of coformulants were created and possible deviations determined.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Category 1<\/span>: significant coformulants, essential for the functioning, the safety or stability of the PPP<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Parallel traded PPP should contain the same Category 1 co-formulants (same CAS No.) and quantitative variations should only be accepted within a small margin (FAO tolerances).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Examples: adhesive (sticker), emetic, thickener, preservative, antioxidant, antifreeze, stabiliser, repellent, buffer, antifoaming agent, anti-caking agent, emulsifier, dispersing agent, propellant, wetting agent, solvent<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Category 2<\/span>: coformulants considered non-significant for the assessment of identity (little functional role in the PPP)<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">MS may exercise a greater degree of tolerance for both qualitative and quantitative changes in Category 2 co-formulants.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Examples: deodorant, dye, miscellaneous, free-flowing agent, carrier, binder<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>To be noted<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Regulation (EC) 1107\/2009 does not prohibit re-packaging of PPP.
