How to Verify a Hong Kong Pharmaceutical Wholesale Licence

Verifying our licence takes a minute: open the Hong Kong Drug Office's live register of licensed wholesale dealers and search our company name.

The short answer

Rely on the live register — not screenshots or cached copies.

Use the Current Live Register

The Hong Kong Drug Office maintains a live list of licensed wholesale dealers. Open the current register through the source link on this page rather than relying on search summaries, forwarded screenshots or cached pages.

Suggested Verification Steps

Search by the formal legal name and check the licence category, number, address and current status. If anything differs, confirm directly with the regulator or our authorised contact.

Limits of Local Scans

A licence scan only proves a moment in time and goes stale after renewal or changes. Before an important transaction, check the live register once more.
