Philippines: Department of Health approves the recommendation of Food and Drug Administration to temporarily suspend New Regulatory Fees.

The Department of Health (DOH) posted an advisory on its DOH FB page last May 30, 2025, informing the public of its approval for the temporary suspension of FDA New Regulatory Fees. The approved FDA memorandum with Subject: Recommendation to temporarily suspend the implementation of Administrative Order 2024-0016: Implementing Guidelines on the New Schedule of Fees and Charges of the Food and Drug Administration, was signed by the DOH Secretary, Teodoro J. Herbosa, MD.

The suspension would take effect seven (7) days after approval by the DOH Secretary as stated in the FDA press release last 29 May 2025, and would remain in force for sixty (60) days.

The suspension seeks to allow time for a comprehensive review of specific provisions of the AO in coordination with the relevant FDA Centers.
