Title: Import Alert Listings on FDA Internet Site
Date: August 7, 2009
To: All brokers and importers

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has become aware that some recent revisions to our Import Alerts are not being posted correctly on FDA's internet website. After further investigation, there are data system difficulties preventing the trade community from viewing the most up-to-date versions of the import alerts. The appropriate parties within FDA are aware of the situation and are working expeditiously to remedy the problem, so we may have the most up-to-date import alerts available for viewing as soon as possible.

If an issue arises wherein there is uncertainty within the trade community as to whether or not a firm and/or product are subject to detention without physical examination as indicated by a particular import alert, please contact your local FDA office for further clarification.
