Introducing Our FDA CFG Legalization Service for Vietnam
If you're exporting FDA-regulated products to Vietnam, you're likely familiar with the Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG), a document issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirming that your products are approved for export and meet U.S. safety and quality standards. This certificate is often required by foreign regulatory agencies, including those in Vietnam.
Digital CFGs Now Issued by FDA
The FDA's Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG) for medical devices is now issued digitally as a downloadable PDF through the CDRH Export Certification Application and Tracking System (CECATS). This transition to electronic documents, which began in January 2024, streamlines the process and provides manufacturers with quicker access to their certificates.
Why Legalization Is Necessary for Vietnam
Unlike countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention, Vietnam is not an apostille country. This means that U.S. documents, including the digital CFG, cannot simply be apostilled for international use.
Instead, they must go through a multi-step authentication and legalization process, which includes:
Authentication by the U.S. Department of State, and
Legalization by the Embassy of Vietnam in Washington, D.C.
This can be a time-consuming and confusing process, especially for companies unfamiliar with the requirements and turnaround times involved.
Let Us Handle the Legalization for You
To simplify this process for our clients, we offer end-to-end CFG legalization services specifically tailored for Vietnam.
Here’s how it works:
1. You place the order with us and email us the digital copy of the CFG.
*Please note that the Vietnam Embassy charges a substantial application fee for the legalization process. Once we receive your order, we’ll send you a payment link for this embassy fee to ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience.
2. We handle the entire authentication process, from the U.S. Department of State to the Vietnamese Embassy.

Once completed, we'll send a scanned copy, then ship the physical, legalized CFG directly to your provided mailing address, anywhere in the U.S. or internationally.
No need to navigate embassy procedures or wait in line. We take care of everything on your behalf.
