We are the licence holder
Import licence, product registrations and IRC codes are in our name. There is no intermediary between you, us and the regulator.
For foreign manufacturers
Your licensed importer, registration holder and partner in Iran: in-house regulatory affairs, nationwide distribution, written responsibilities, offices in Istanbul, Hangzhou and Zhenjiang.
For foreign manufacturers
A licensed, accountable partner for your products in Iran.
Hanpars is the trading name of Haniya Parsan Darou Co., a pharmaceutical importer in Tehran licensed by the Iran Food and Drug Administration (IFDA). We hold the marketing authorisations for the hospital and specialty medicines we import, prepare the dossiers ourselves and manage pharmacovigilance after approval.
For a foreign manufacturer this means one counterpart in Iran who is legally responsible for the product, answers to the regulator in your name, and reports back to you in writing. The figures below are the ones we publish on this site and keep up to date.

Why manufacturers work with us
Regulatory work stays in-house
Dossiers, submissions, variations, renewals and pharmacovigilance are done by our own regulatory team, which also files for third-party manufacturers.
Written responsibilities
Every project starts with a confidentiality agreement and a written division of responsibilities; quality and supply agreements follow before the first shipment.
Nationwide distribution
Hospital and pharmacy coverage through Iran’s main pharmaceutical distributors; cold chain for biologics.
A supplier to the national reserve
Contracted supplier to the IFDA under the Strategic Medicine Reserve programme for several critical medicines.
A team that speaks your language
Offices in Istanbul, Hangzhou and Zhenjiang, and staff who work in English, Turkish, Chinese and Persian.

Questions manufacturers ask us
Who holds the registration in Iran?
Hanpars, as the IFDA-licensed importer and applicant, under the authorisation you give us. The product remains yours; the scope and term of the authorisation are agreed in the LoA.
How long does registration take?
It depends on the product category, the dossier and the regulator’s queue. We give a written, dated estimate after the assessment and update it as the file progresses; we do not quote fixed timelines in advance.
Can you audit us, and can we audit you?
Yes, both. We review your GMP status and documentation before we commit; you are welcome to audit our premises, records and the distributors we use.
Do you also handle local manufacturing?
Where local production is the better route, we coordinate licensed manufacturing on the lines of an Iranian GMP plant; see the contract development and manufacturing page.
