The NAFDAC Readiness Checklist

Registration Readiness for Product Makers

Can your product, premises and paperwork survive registration?

A free readiness check for Nigerian makers of food, drinks, cosmetics, drugs and chemicals. The NAFDAC number is the line between a brand and a liability — and the process tests both your product and your premises. Score yours before you apply.

How to use it

Tick every item that is genuinely true for your business today — be honest, a flattering score helps no one. Your score and gaps update live in the panel beside you.

Tick what's true now Must-have — counts double · Everything else — good to have

Where to focus next

Work in order: sort the business, premises and brand name, then assemble the product file (formulation, lab Certificate of Analysis, compliant labels, batch system), then ready your samples and budget before you open the application.

Covers the common path for locally made regulated products (food, cosmetics, drinks, etc.). Exact requirements differ by product category and can change — confirm current details on the NAFDAC e-registration portal. This is a readiness gauge, not regulatory advice.
