URPL-Aligned Drug Safety Execution for EU & Global Marketing Authorisation Holders

Operating in Poland requires robust alignment with EU pharmacovigilance legislation alongside country-specific expectations from URPL. Beyond centralised EU compliance, Polish authorities expect locally accessible safety oversight, timely adverse event reporting, and clear accountability for pharmacovigilance operations.

DDReg provides end-to-end Pharmacovigilance Services in Poland, supporting pharmaceutical, biotech, and life sciences companies with URPL pharmacovigilance services, local PV contact support, and inspection-ready drug safety systems. Our approach combines EU-level governance with practical, Poland-specific execution.

Poland Pharmacovigilance Framework

Pharmacovigilance in Poland is overseen by the Office for Registration of Medicinal Products, Medical Devices and Biocidal Products (URPL – Urząd Rejestracji Produktów Leczniczych, Wyrobów Medycznych i Produktów Biobójczych), operating under the

Ministry of Health.
  • EU Good Pharmacovigilance Practices (GVP)
  • EMA and EudraVigilance reporting requirements
  • National legal provisions under Poland’s Pharmaceutical Law
From a compliance perspective, companies marketing products in Poland must ensure:
  • Continuous safety monitoring and timely adverse event reporting
  • Local pharmacovigilance accessibility for URPL communication
  • Alignment between EU QPPV oversight and Poland-specific PV activities
  • Readiness for URPL inspections and authority safety requests

QPPV, LCPPV & Local Pharmacovigilance Contact Requirements in Poland

EU QPPV Requirement

All MAHs must appoint a Qualified Person for Pharmacovigilance (QPPV) located within the EU/EEA, in accordance with EU legislation. The QPPV retains overall responsibility for the pharmacovigilance system.

Local Contact Person for Pharmacovigilance - Poland

While Poland does not mandate a separate national QPPV, URPL expects a local pharmacovigilance contact to ensure effective national oversight.

Key expectations for the local PV contact (often referred to as LCPPV / local safety officer):
  • Typically, a pharmacist or physician
  • Fluent in Polish
  • Accessible to URPL for safety-related communication
  • Knowledgeable in local reporting practices and timelines
Core Responsibilities
  • Handling URPL pharmacovigilance reporting
  • Supporting adverse event follow-ups and authority queries
  • Coordinating Poland-specific activities with the EU QPPV
  • Supporting PSMF maintenance, SDEA oversight, and compliance checks
  • Ensuring implementation of RMP Poland submission requirements

DDReg provides Local QPPV Services Poland and LCPPV services Poland, ensuring seamless EU-to-local pharmacovigilance integration.
