Pharmacovigilance and Drug Safety Obligations in Taiwan
In Taiwan, pharmacovigilance and post market safety surveillance fall under the authority of the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) within the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The TFDA’s regulatory framework requires companies marketing pharmaceuticals and biologics in Taiwan to actively monitor, assess, and report safety data, including adverse reactions and emerging product risks. National rules mandate timely reporting of serious adverse drug reactions and ongoing safety monitoring as part of structured lifecycle compliance.
- Establishing a responsible pharmacovigilance contact or local safety officer within Taiwan aligned with regulatory expectations.
- Implementing systems capable of collecting, assessing, and submitting adverse event information to TFDA in required timeframes.
- Managing post market surveillance workflows that can withstand inspection scrutiny and provide traceability across case handling, risk assessment, and safety communication.
TFDA updates effective January 1, 2025 further refine severe adverse reaction reporting requirements, adding specifications for reporting content, timelines, and investigational responses.
QPPV / Responsible Pharmacovigilance Person Requirements in Taiwan
While Taiwan does not mandate an EU style Qualified Person for Pharmacovigilance (QPPV) in name, TFDA does require that MAHs designate a local pharmacovigilance responsible person or contact. This individual, often a pharmacist or qualified healthcare professional based in Taiwan, acts as the official point of contact for TFDA regarding safety data, adverse event reports, and risk communications.
- Adverse Event Reporting: Ensuring adverse events, especially serious or unexpected reactions, are reported to TFDA within mandatory timelines and in the prescribed formats.
- Regulatory Communication: Serving as a direct liaison with TFDA on safety issues, inspections, and queries.
- Accountability: Maintaining accountability for the pharmacovigilance system’s performance in Taiwan and its adherence to local norms.
DDReg’s Local Contact Person for Pharmacovigilance Taiwan services provide experienced professionals who fulfill these expectations, directly integrated with your global PV governance model.
Taiwan’s pharmacovigilance framework is grounded in both local legislation and internationally recognised standards:
- Pharmaceutical Affairs Act: Core legislation governing drug licensing, post market surveillance, and safety obligations in Taiwan.
- Regulations for Reporting Severe Adverse Reactions of Medicaments: Updated rules defining mandatory adverse reaction reporting requirements and timelines.
- Good Pharmacovigilance Practices: Local PFvP guidelines adapted to Taiwan’s regulatory expectations.
- International Standards (ICH, WHO): TFDA’s PV model aligns with ICH safety reporting conventions and broader WHO pharmacovigilance frameworks, ensuring harmonisation with global PV norms.
These references form the backbone of compliant TFDA pharmacovigilance services and safety lifecycle management in Taiwan.
