1. Inspections

Yes, EMA charges a fee for inspections, which varies depending on the type of inspection Good Manufacturing Practice inspections (GMP), Good Clinical Practice inspections (GCP), Good Laboratory Practice inspections (GLP), Plasma Master File inspections (PMF) and pharmacovigilance inspections (GVP) and site of the inspection whether it is within or outside the Union.

The amount payable will be determined by the date of receipt of the inspection report by the supervisory authorities as outlined in the Appendix to the Fee Regulation Working arrangements. For the applicable amount for each distinct or consecutive inspection, please refer to Annex IV, Section 1, to the Fee Regulation and chapter 1.4 of the Fee Regulation Working arrangements.

The criteria defining a distinct inspection per type are outlined in chapter 1.4 of the Working Arrangements.

Example scenarios fee calculations

The example scenarios shown below do not represent an exhaustive list.

 

There could be one or several fee reductions applicable linked to an inspection. Please note that the most favourable reduction to the applicant will be applied, as reductions are not cumulative. Moreover, please note that reductions only apply to the applicable fees; reductions do not apply to the cancellation charges referred to in point 1.3 of Annex IV to Regulation 2024/568.

Micro, small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs)

A 90% fee reduction and deferral is applicable to pre-authorisation inspections of marketing authorisation applications for non-orphan medicinal products submitted by micro, small or medium-sized enterprises.

A 90% fee reduction is applicable to post-authorisation inspections for non-orphan medicinal products.

A fee deferral for a SME applicant means that the time of payment of the inspection fee is deferred until the notification of the final decision (positive or negative outcome) on the MA is issued, or the application is withdrawn. The invoice issued at the time the fee is calculated will inform the applicant that the fee is deferred.

Applicants must be established in the EEA and fulfil the definition of a micro, small or medium-sized enterprise as set out in Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC of 6 May 2003. To benefit from incentives, SMEs must hold a valid SME status with EMA or have submitted the renewal of the SME status (i.e. before its expiry) at time of receipt of the inspection report by EMA.

The fee reductions shall not be granted to SMEs acting as applicant for the relevant medicinal product by virtue of a contractual arrangement with a non-SME legal entity. A subsequent change to the SME status (i.e. expiration of the SME status) taking place after the applicable fee level date (i.e. date of receipt of the inspection report) will not be taken into account for the application of the SME fee incentives. However, in case of a merger or acquisition impacting the applicant’s SME status, or a product is subject to out-licensing to a non-SME legal entity, after the applicable fee level date, then the deferral will cease to apply from the date on which the merger/acquisition or out-licensing took place, and the applicable fees will no longer be subject to fee deferral and shall be payable.

For pre- and post-authorisation inspections, if there is a merger or acquisition impacting the applicant’s SME status, or if a product is subject to out-licensing to a non-SME legal entity, before the applicable fee level date, then the SME fee reduction will not apply.

To register as an SME with EMA or renew the SME status, please refer to

Designated orphan medicinal products

A 100% fee reduction is applicable for pre-authorisation inspections related to designated orphan medicinal products.

To be eligible for orphan fee incentives, a decision of the European Commission granting the orphan designation must have been adopted (product entered in the Community Register of orphan medicinal products) at the time of submission of the scientific advice request. A positive COMP opinion on orphan designation is not sufficient for eligibility to the orphan fee reduction.

Please note that during a transfer of an orphan designation, eligibility for fee incentives lies with the initial sponsor (orphan designation holder) until the transfer is complete. Once the transfer is completed, the new sponsor is eligible to fee incentives. The new sponsor must be a different person/legal entity.

For more information on how to receive an orphan designation for a medicinal product, please refer to

Medicinal products for paediatric use

A 50% fee reduction is applicable for pre-authorisation inspections related to a paediatric use marketing authorisation application (PUMA) and to post-authorisation inspections in the first year from granting such marketing authorisation, if the advice requested does not include the adult population.

Pharmacovigilance inspections related to veterinary medicinal products

A 30% fee reduction is applicable for each distinct post-authorisation pharmacovigilance inspection related to veterinary medicinal products.

Yes; however, depending on when you decide to cancel the inspection, a different amount is charged as laid down in section 1.2 or 1.3 of Annex IV to the Fee Regulation.

If a scheduled inspection is cancelled 30 calendar days or less before the first day of the inspection for reasons attributable to the applicant, the full inspection fee will be applicable.

If a scheduled inspection is cancelled more than 30 calendar days before the first day of the inspection for reasons attributable to the applicant, a cancellation charge is applicable.

The Agency and inspecting authorities are not liable for any financial loss or damage the applicant may incur due to a failure to conduct a scheduled inspection or the need to reschedule it.

An inspection is considered to be scheduled once the specific dates for the actual inspection have been decided by the inspecting NCAs and provided to the EMA Inspection office.

The cancellation date (as referred to in the Appendix to the Fee Regulation Working Arrangements) will be determined as follows:

  • the date of receipt by EMA of a formal letter from the MAH/applicant/PMF Holder requesting the cancellation of an inspection for one or more products, including a valid justification (e.g. a site will be removed from the dossier/ongoing evaluation of a procedure); please note that a request simply made in an e-mail is not considered sufficient to cancel an inspection.
  • The date of submission of withdrawal of an initial marketing authorisation application or withdrawal of a variation.
  • The date of submission of a variation.

Upon cancellation of the inspection, EMA will issue the corresponding cancellation fee or charge as applicable. In case of doubts as to the applicability of an administrative charge or fee, please contact the Agency before submitting your cancellation request.

If following the cancellation of the inspection the applicant/MAH/PMF Holder does not remove the site from the dossier as communicated to EMA and, consequently, an inspection is needed, a new inspection will be requested by EMA and the full applicable fees will be charged. As a result, in such cases, both the cancellation fee of the initial inspection and a full fee for the following inspection will be charged.

Cancellation fees are charged when a product or a site is fully removed from the scope of an inspection, following the Annex IV of the Working Arrangements. In case of the partial deletion of the manufacturing operations of a product in scope, no cancellation fees will be charged. In these cases, EMA will readjust the number of fees applicable to that product based on the manufacturing operations left in scope.

The supervisory authorities will charge the applicant the travel and accommodation expenses separately from the fees levied by EMA; travel and accommodation charges and their payment are dealt with between the supervisory authorities and the applicants.

In case of a cancelled inspection, the applicant shall be charged for any travel expenses already incurred by the inspecting authority on the date of cancellation for which that authority is not able to obtain reimbursement.

If the inspection report is received by EMA before 01/01/25 (in 2024), the applicable fee will be under Council Regulation (EC) No 297/95.

If the inspection report is received by EMA on or after 01/01/2025, the fees according to Regulation (EU) 2024/568 apply.

Concerning partial or full cancellations, the applicable fees are calculated considering the date of receipt by EMA of the formal letter from the MAH/Applicant/PMF Holder to request to cancel an inspection. If the receipt of the formal request for cancelation is before 01/01/25 (i.e. in 2024), the applicable cancellation fee will fall under Council Regulation (EC) No 297/95

If the receipt of the formal request for cancelation is on or after 01/01/2025, the cancellation fees will be calculated according to Regulation (EU) 2024/568.
