Premises declaration for a drug licence (pharmacy or medical store)

A declaration by the owner of a pharmacy or medical store giving the area, storage and ownership details of the premises, for the drug licence application.

This is a sample, not an official form. Offices differ. Check this text with the issuing office before you sign, and use the office's own form if it gives you one. Govt License does not give legal advice.

What it is for

Use it when the licensing office asks for a declaration about the premises along with Form 19. The Drugs Rules, 1945 need at least 10 square metres for retail or wholesale and at least 15 square metres for both, with proper storage and a Registered Pharmacist in charge. Some offices give their own format, so check first.

Who signs

The proprietor, partner or director signs.
