Two tracks, depending on where you sit in the chain

What an Iranian producer starting to export needs is not what a foreign distributor looking for a supplier needs. That is why I have designed the two routes separately, so the message for each group stays clear and specific.

How fees are determined

Engagements are project-based: each project carries its own scope and its own fee. There is no fixed price for this work, because no two cases are the same size. The fee is set once the scope is clear, and it is given to you in writing before anything starts.

What determines the fee

  • Scope: a single regulatory assessment, or managing the whole chain through to payment collection
  • Product type: finished dosage form or active ingredient, and whether it is a controlled item
  • Target market: each market carries its own requirements, deciding authority and timeline
  • Regulatory complexity: how many documents, how they depend on each other, and how many already exist
  • Level of support required: occasional advice, accompaniment through a project, or presence in all correspondence

The order of things

  1. A first conversation, to understand what the case is and whether it falls within what I take on at all.
  2. A written scope and fee proposal: what will be delivered, over what timeline, and what sits outside the scope.
  3. Work begins once that document is agreed. If the scope changes mid-engagement, it is rewritten before the work is done.

No work starts without a written scope and fee — not for small cases, and not for urgent ones.
