ASEAN Common Technical Document (ACTD), Parts of ACTD, Countries of ASEAN

This ASEAN Common Technical Dossier (ACTD) is a guideline of the agreed-upon common format for the preparation of a well-structured Common Technical Dossier (CTD) application which was submitted to ASEAN regulatory authorities for the registration of pharmaceuticals for human use.

This CTD format is a guideline that will describe the resources needed to compile applications for registration and significantly reduce the time. This guideline merely demonstrates an appropriate write-up format for acquired data.

The display of information should be straightforward and transparent, in order to facilitate the review of the basic data and to help a reviewer become quickly align to the application contents. The ACTD’S advantage is that one dossier can be prepared for all ASEAN countries, reducing efforts and facilitating the regulatory review process.
