Expanding your exports into USA requires a specialized legal process known as Consular Legalization. Because USA is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, your U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) certificates cannot be validated with a simple apostille. Instead, they must undergo a rigorous chain of authentication to be recognized by the Ministry of Health (MINSA) and customs authorities in Luanda.
At FDA Apostille, we have modernized this multi-step requirement with a 100% digital submission model. We handle the entire sequence—from the U.S. Department of State to the Embassy of USA—ensuring your pharmaceuticals, medical devices, or food products are legally cleared for the USAn market without you ever having to handle physical paperwork.
The process for USA is more intensive than standard international document work. It requires a specific "bridge" between federal departments and the USAn consulate. Our electronic workflow is designed to manage these moving parts efficiently, providing a seamless experience for American exporters.
20-Business-Day Turnaround: Despite the multiple government layers involved, we work to complete the full legalization chain within 20 business days.
Professional $57 Service Fee: We offer expert oversight for a flat fee of $57 per document. This transparent pricing helps you avoid the high costs of specialized couriers and administrative errors.
No Physical Mailing Required: You simply upload your digital FDA certificates to our secure portal. Our team manages the federal and embassy interactions directly in Washington, D.C.
To successfully register products or clear customs in USA, you must provide the correct authenticated documentation. We specialize in the legalization of the following FDA certificates:
Certificate of Free Sale (CFS): This is a core requirement for exporters of food, dietary supplements, and vitamins. It proves to USAn authorities that your products are legally sold in the United States and meet the FDA's strict safety standards.
Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP): indispensable for the medicine and drug sector. Following the WHO format, this document verifies that your pharmaceuticals are authorized for sale and manufactured under Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), which is a vital requirement for the USAn healthcare market.
Certificate to a Foreign Government (CFG): The primary document for medical device manufacturers. It attests that your equipment complies with U.S. law, making it suitable for use in USAn hospitals and clinics.
Certificates for Cosmetics and Health: We also manage the legalization of Cosmetic Certificates and Health Certificates, ensuring your personal care and specialized health products meet all local USAn benchmarks for safety and labeling.
In 2026, the speed of your documentation is a competitive advantage. Our digital-only intake removes the biggest risks in the legalization process: lost mail, physical damage, and manual processing delays.
Document Integrity and Security: By starting with your digital FDA files, we ensure the original certification remains pristine. We maintain the legal integrity of your documents through secure, encrypted channels throughout the entire authentication cycle.
Expert Embassy Handling: Our team understands the specific requirements of the Embassy of USA, including necessary translations or specific formatting rules. We ensure that every document contains the exact seals and signatures required for absolute legal recognition in the country.
Streamlined Record Keeping: Your private account dashboard allows you to track the real-time status of your documents. This provides your logistics and accounting teams with a clear, organized history of every legalization processed for your USAn exports.

By moving your document legalization to our electronic platform, you can focus on your distribution strategy while we handle the complexities of Washington, D.C.
