TecEx Medical IOR Services for Clinical Trials

TecEx Medical is a global Importer of Record (IOR) and Exporter of Record (EOR) for clinical trials, supporting 100+ countries. TecEx Medical supports sponsors, CROs, CDMOs, and freight providers by navigating complex medical trade regulations, such as country-specific Ministry of Health (MoH) requirements, clinical trial notifications, tariffs, licensing requirements, and global trade agreements.

 

Working across the entire supply chain, TecEx Medical manages all documentation, local compliance requirements, and alignment among all entities involved to ensure a 3–6-week expedited clinical study start-up.

The TecEx Medical Solution

Clinical trial shipments face country-specific Ministry of Health (MoH) requirements, tight Site Initiation Visit (SIV) dates, unexpected tariffs, strict licensing requirements, and medical global trade agreements.

 

Through licensed entities and local teams in every major clinical trial market, TecEx Medical combines global reach with on-the-ground regulatory knowledge to enable a centralized solution for all import requirements. This local presence enables adaptation to each study’s or country’s specific requirements, helps anticipate challenges, and delivers consistent, compliant service throughout the study.

 

TecEx Medical removes the regulatory burden of shipping clinical supplies, including Investigational Medicinal Products (IMP), investigational devices, medical devices, lab kits, PRMs, and biological samples.

 

Furthermore, TecEx Medical enables import tax efficiencies through its in-house-developed solutions and industry expertise.
