| Import
& Export Requirements |

This import-
and export survey was originally started in 2003. In
2009 WMDA began updating the data and you are invited to
participate here.
The data already collected by this survey is available on
the WMDA website under

Directive 2004/23/EC requirements for products sources from third
countries. |
 |
The EU Directive 2004/23/EC (article 9)
says:
Member States shall take all necessary measures to ensure that all
imports of tissues and cells from third countries are undertaken by
tissue establishments accredited, designated, authorised or licensed
for the purpose of those activities, and that imported tissues and
cells can be traced from the donor to the recipient and vice versa in
accordance with the procedures referred to in Article 8. Member States
and tissue establishments that receive such imports from third
countries shall ensure that they meet standards of quality and safety
equivalent to the ones laid down in this Directive.
AHCTA (www.ahcta.org) supports the creation of an international
registry of tissue and cell establishments in order to facilitate this
international movement of tissues and cells..
The Collection
center - cord blood bank
document is a first step in supporting this international registry. We
ask that you can send this document to the collection centres and cord
blood banks you are working with or fill in by yourself. We will put
the information in an international registry database, so that you can
easily retrieve the information. |
