Looking only at the expiry date is not sufficient.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a product does not appear in the file currently being searched, do not immediately conclude that it is illegal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the correct trade name or registration number was searched;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether a newer list of newly authorized products exists;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether a revocation decision has been issued;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the data source being used is current.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterinary drugs used in ordinary commercial activities must have an appropriate legal status.

1: Identify the Product Information Available Before Searching<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before starting the search, determine what information is available from the product:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trade name shown on the packaging;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Main active ingredient, if known;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturer or registration holder.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more information available, the easier it is to identify the correct product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A registration number can often narrow the search quickly, but the result should still be checked against other fields because information printed on packaging can also contain errors or be misused.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 2: Use Official Sources<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of 2026, searches should begin with <\/span><b>Circular No. 18\/2024\/TT-BNNPTNT<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and official information sources maintained by the competent veterinary authority.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For broader regulatory matters involving registration, renewal, import dossiers, quality management, or revocation, users should also review <\/span><b>Consolidated Document No. 60\/VBHN-BNNMT dated 5 June 2026<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and any other legislation in force at the time of the search.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Relevant sources may include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The official portal of the competent livestock and animal health authority.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Circular No. 18\/2024\/TT-BNNPTNT and its annexes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Department of Animal Health and Production section listing veterinary drugs that have been granted authorization for circulation in Vietnam.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Published lists of newly granted, renewed, or updated marketing

revoked.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Official veterinary drug databases, where provided by the authority at the time of the search.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An Excel or PDF file downloaded from a secondary source should not be used as the sole basis for determining a product\u2019s legal status.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Older lists circulated unofficially on social media, forums, or file-sharing channels should also not be relied upon alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 3: Search by Trade Name, Active Ingredient, or Registration Number<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the information available, there are three common search approaches.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>By registration number<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will often narrow the result most quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After locating the record, still compare:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Product name;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Active ingredient;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span

status.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>By trade name<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Care is needed because:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar product names may exist;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identical or similar names may be associated with different manufacturers, formulations, or registration numbers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>By active ingredient<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can be useful when checking multiple products containing the same active ingredient.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the results should not be used to independently select a substitute product because indications, formulations, and approved uses may differ.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 4: Review the Result and Determine Current Regulatory Status<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once a product record has been located, check:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does the registration number or authorization information on the product match the official record?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is the marketing authorization still valid on the date of the search?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Has any revocation decision been issued for the product?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do the trade name, active ingredient, registration holder, and manufacturer match the physical packaging?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are the target species and label indication appropriate for the intended use?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If information on the packaging does not match official data, purchasing or using the product should be paused until the discrepancy has been clarified.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verification should preferably be obtained from the <\/span><b>competent veterinary authority or the entity responsible for the product registration<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Information provided by a supplier can support the verification process but should not be the only basis for determining legal status.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Checking a Veterinary Drug Registration Number Before Purchase or Use<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Five Steps to Check Whether a Veterinary

information on the product label.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Access an official data source maintained by the competent

conclude that the product is genuine or counterfeit. Further verification should be completed before use.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Warning Signs of a False, Nonexistent, or Expired Registration Number<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:

for the product.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The label does not clearly display the information needed for verification or appears to have been altered abnormally.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A registration number should not be classified as genuine or false solely from its appearance or numbering structure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If there is doubt, priority should be given to verification with the <\/span><b>competent livestock and animal health authority or the entity responsible for product registration<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suppliers may provide additional documents but do not replace

commercial sale in Vietnam must meet the applicable requirements for marketing authorization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the veterinary drug management regulations as amended by 2026, dossiers for imported veterinary drugs may include documents demonstrating manufacturing standards and the product\u2019s legal status abroad, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li

documentation, certificates of analysis, and other technical documents required under the applicable procedure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exact dossier requirements should be checked against the veterinary drug regulations currently in force.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A fixed checklist consisting of documents such as CFS, CPP, MA, or CoA should not automatically be assumed to apply identically to every imported product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not every imported veterinary drug without a Vietnamese marketing authorization is necessarily imported unlawfully.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Law on Veterinary Medicine provides certain circumstances in which veterinary drugs without a Vietnamese marketing authorization may be imported under a permit for specific purposes, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emergency animal disease prevention and control or response to natural-disaster consequences.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"

border-inspection results should not be applied automatically to every veterinary drug because procedural requirements depend on the specific legal circumstances.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Considerations for Importers, Dealers, and Farms Purchasing Imported Veterinary Drugs<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For imported veterinary drugs intended for ordinary commercial sale, the product

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Farms should purchase from suppliers with clear information, retain invoices and purchasing documents, and independently compare product information against official records before use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imported veterinary drugs with unclear origin, documentation, or regulatory status in Vietnam should not be purchased.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a product described as a \u201csample,\u201d the purpose under which it was imported should be identified.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span

compliance.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Livestock producers should carefully read the product label and use veterinary drugs according to the manufacturer\u2019s approved instructions, veterinary prescription, or appropriate guidance from a veterinary practitioner as required by applicable regulations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Common Situations That Cause Confusion on Farms<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Common examples include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a veterinary drug authorized for pigs in poultry because the farmer assumes that the same active ingredient can be used in the same way.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using an authorized antimicrobial without complying with its indications, prescription requirements, or responsible antimicrobial-use principles.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Confusing a valid marketing authorization with appropriateness for the current clinical case.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using veterinary drugs based on habit or informal advice without checking the product label and official information.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterinary drug decisions should always be based on official product information and appropriate veterinary guidance under the applicable regulations rather than personal experience alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Common Errors and Practical Lessons<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Common Mistakes: Failing to Check Registration Numbers, Using Old Inventory, and Relying Entirely on Dealers<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Three common mistakes should be avoided by farms and veterinary drug distributors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>First, failing to recheck the registration number or authorization status when purchasing a new batch.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A product that has been used for many years may still undergo changes involving:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Registration;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturer;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authorization status.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Second, continuing to use long-held inventory solely because the product itself has not yet reached its expiry date.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>product expiry date<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the validity of its marketing authorization are two different concepts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Existing inventory should be assessed by considering:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marketing authorization status;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Renewal or revocation information;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Status of the specific batch;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Applicable rules for handling the product.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A universal rule should not be inferred from the product expiry date alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Third, relying entirely on the dealer without checking official sources.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dealers or suppliers may provide product documentation, but regulatory information should still be checked against official sources when doubts arise.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Case Study: A Farm Identifies an Expired Authorization in Its Existing Veterinary Drug Inventory<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>This is a hypothetical example designed to illustrate a risk-management process. It is not a real enforcement case and does not imply any specific regulatory penalty.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pig farm has a veterinary drug in inventory that it has used for several years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During a routine records review, the technical team discovers that the marketing authorization shown on the product has reached the end of its validity period.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than continuing to use the product simply because <\/span><b>the product itself has not yet reached its expiry date<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the farm stops introducing the product into treatment and checks:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Renewal status;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reissuance information;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Revocation lists;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Current official regulatory data.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the authorization is confirmed to have expired and there is no updated legal basis showing that the product still has a valid status for circulation, the farm should not continue treating it as an ordinarily authorized veterinary drug.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The farm should contact the entity responsible for product registration or the competent veterinary authority to determine how the remaining stock should be handled.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Lesson:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> authorization status should not only be checked when purchasing a new drug. It should also form part of periodic inventory-control procedures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Case Study: A Distributor Avoids Purchasing an Imported Veterinary Drug With Unclear Regulatory Status<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>This is a hypothetical example illustrating verification before a commercial transaction. It does not establish that the product in the example was officially recalled.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A distributor receives an offer to purchase an imported veterinary drug from a new supplier at a competitive price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before signing the contract, the distributor checks the registration number and product information against official records.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The information in the documents provided by the seller does not fully match the status shown in the regulatory source.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The distributor therefore pauses the transaction and requests additional verification.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Priority is given to checking with the entity responsible for the product registration and official regulatory sources rather than relying only on the seller\u2019s commercial explanation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This pre-purchase verification helps prevent a product with unresolved regulatory status from entering the company\u2019s distribution system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Lesson:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a new supplier or a product that has not previously been traded, authorization status should be verified before signing a contract and accepting the shipment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Frequently Asked Questions About the 2026 List of Veterinary Drugs Authorized for Circulation<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19916\"

id=\"caption-attachment-19916\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">When checking the 2026 veterinary drug list, prioritize official regulations and current data available at the time of the search.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b>How Can I Quickly Search the 2026 List of Veterinary Drugs Authorized for Circulation?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of 2026, begin with <\/span><b>Circular No. 18\/2024\/TT-BNNPTNT<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and official data sources maintained by the <\/span><b>Department of Animal Health and Production<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For broader matters involving registration, renewal, changes to marketing authorization, or imported veterinary drugs, <\/span><b>Consolidated Document No. 60\/VBHN-BNNMT dated 5 June 2026<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and other legislation currently in force may also be reviewed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then search using the product\u2019s registration number or marketing authorization information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the registration number is unavailable, searches may also be performed using:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trade name;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Active ingredient;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturer;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Registration holder.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These methods require more careful comparison because multiple products may have similar names.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important step is not simply checking whether the product appears in one list file, but also confirming whether its authorization remains valid or has been revoked.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>How Do I Check Whether a Veterinary Drug Registration Number Is Still Valid?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find the registration number or marketing authorization information on the product label and search it in an official source.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authorization expiry date.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Renewal or reissuance information.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any decision revoking the authorization.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the product name, active ingredient, registration holder, and manufacturer match the packaging.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not conclude that an authorization remains valid solely because its stated expiry date has not yet passed, because it may be revoked before that date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the information cannot be found or does not match, verification should preferably be obtained from the competent authority or the entity responsible for product registration before the medicine is used.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Must an Imported Veterinary Drug Be Included in the Authorized List Before It Can Be Used?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For veterinary drugs imported for ordinary commercial sale and use in Vietnam, the product must have an appropriate legal status under Vietnamese regulations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A registration number or authorization issued in the country of manufacture does not replace the Vietnamese marketing authorization required for ordinary commercial activities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the Law on Veterinary Medicine provides certain circumstances in which products without a Vietnamese marketing authorization may still be imported under a permit for special purposes such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emergency disease control;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Field trials;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testing;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Product registration;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exhibitions;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterinary diagnosis or laboratory testing.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These products may only be used for the purpose and under the conditions stated in the permit. They are not ordinary commercially authorized veterinary drugs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>If a Veterinary Drug I Am Using Is No Longer Found in the 2026 List, Can I Continue Using It?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The decision should not be based solely on the fact that the product \u201cis no longer found in one list file.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First check:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the marketing authorization remains valid.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the product has been renewed or reissued.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether a revocation decision exists.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the list being searched is the current source.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether any transitional provision or other legal basis applies to the product or existing inventory.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the authorization has expired and there is no renewal, reissuance, transitional provision, or other legal basis allowing continued circulation, the product should not continue to be treated as having valid authorization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Independent use should be paused and the appropriate handling of the product verified with the entity responsible for product registration or the competent veterinary authority.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can I Search by Trade Name, or Is a Registration Number Required?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A search can be performed using:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trade name;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Active ingredient;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturer or registration-holder information.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A registration number usually narrows the search more quickly, but it should not be treated as the only verification criterion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If only the trade name is available, also compare:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Active ingredient;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dosage form;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Registration holder;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturer;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Registration number;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Current marketing authorization status.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cross-checking multiple fields reduces the risk of confusing products with identical or similar names.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Strengthening Veterinary Drug Supply Control at VIETSTOCK 2026<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Checking the list of veterinary drugs authorized for circulation is an important step that can help farms, dealers, and distributors reduce risks associated with purchasing, selling, or using products with expired authorization, invalid registration information, or an inappropriate target-animal scope.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span

with residue control, protection of livestock-product reputation, and risk reduction when working with commercial buyers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an industry event
