Why Do You Need an Importer of Record (IOR)?

Moving clinical trial supplies across the globe is incredibly complex and many companies that try to do it themselves surrender unnecessary time, money, and resources that can derail your supply chain and put your clinical trial at risk.

Outsourcing this function to a specialized IOR provides many benefits:

Mitigates Risk

We’ll take on key legal, financial, and audit risk, reducing your exposure to fines or shipment delays and allowing you to focus on what you do best.

Ensures Accuracy

Our exceptional team is always on the cutting-edge of evolving legislation, local timelines, and entry requirements to ensure that your shipments get through first time, every time.

Saves Time and Cost

By consolidating your documentation, duties, and payment under one roof, you avoid hidden fees, duplicated processes, and costly re-work.

Enhances Visibility and Accountability

You’ll get access to a single point of contact for all your imports, allowing real-time tracking of document approvals, duty payments, and clearance status.

Leverages Existing Licenses

We already hold all the key import licenses for medical devices, samples, and other supplies. You don’t need to re-invent the wheel.

Accelerates Market Entry

Our established relationships with local customs authorities, regulatory bodies, and logistics partners mean faster approvals and smoother clearance processes, getting your clinical trial materials to site without delay.
