EDA completes onboarding of 1,300 imported pharmaceutical products into the Track & Trace system by August.

According to Al-Mal" that these 1,300 items will be registered in regular monthly batches.


The EDA adopted a phased mechanism to avoid market disruption and ensure implementation smoothness, especially given the diversity of operating entities and supply routes.


Parallel to the imported items, the registration of local medications will begin at the start of the same month (August), also via regular monthly batches.


Dr. Ali Al-Ghamrawi, Chairman of the EDA, is expected to hold a press conference to announce the official launch and expansion plans. This includes an incentive package for pharmacies and warehouses to join voluntarily, such as providing computers and barcode readers to some pharmacies at no additional financial burden to ensure speed and accuracy.
