Overview
The Non-eCTD Electronic Submission (NeeS) format has been made mandatory in the European Union (EU) from 2003 onwards. When compared to the electronic common technical document (eCTD), the non-eCTD electronic submission or NeeS is different in terms of navigating structures. It does not use the XML backbone. It also differs from eCTD with two (02) relevant XML files, the index.xml and the eu-regional.xml for the backbone of Modules 2 to 5, and Module 1 for the EU, respectively. As per the country-specific guidelines, the NeeS is based on granular PDF files, electronic tables of contents, and electronic navigation.
With a clear-cut understanding and expertise in handling region-specific requirements for NeeS submissions, Freyr helps manufacturers navigate through the Regulatory dossier compilation for publishing and submissions. Freyr specializes in creating NeeS submissions for:
