required in the processing of brand names for Drugs, Devices, Cosmetics
and other Household Products containing Hazardous Substances. This was
after confirmation with BPTTT that no trademark or tradename would be
registered by the same office without BFAD certificate of product
registration.
On the other hand, there exists a possibility of prior users of
names of food products applied for in BFAD, registration of locally
manufactured food or food products for local consumption not being
mandatory. The requirement of BPTTT clearance in the processing of BFAD
clearance for brand names of food products is therefore maintained.
For the guidance of all concerned.
Adopted: 5 Sept. 1990
