FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG) Legalization for Use in Malaysia

When presenting your FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG) in Malaysia, the document must undergo the consular legalization process before it is recognized by local authorities. CFG Apostille facilitates the entire procedure and offers expedited legalization within 9 business days. Both digital and physical FDA certificates are accepted.

1. Request the FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG)

The first step is to obtain the FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG), which certifies that your product complies with FDA export regulations.

  • How to Apply: Submit your request through the [FDA Export Certification Application System].

  • Certificate Type: The FDA may issue either a paper-based or digital certificate (bearing an official digital seal).

  • Digital Acceptance: CFG Apostille accepts digital FDA certificates directly, allowing processing without shipping the physical document.

2. Verify Legalization Requirement for Malaysia

Since Malaysia is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an apostille cannot be used. Instead, all U.S. documents intended for use in Malaysia must go through consular legalization.

If you’re uncertain whether legalization applies to your case, CFG Apostille can confirm Malaysia’s current requirements and ensure your CFG complies with national import documentation standards.

3. Submit a Legalization Request

Once your certificate is issued, you can initiate the legalization process through our website.

  • Online Submission: Complete the legalization request form available at cfgapostille.com.

  • Secure Payment: Legalization fees can be paid online using any supported method.

  • Expedited Handling: Your document can be legalized within 9 business days under our express service option.

4. Send Your Certificate to CFG Apostille

You can send your FDA certificate either electronically or by mail, depending on its format:

  • Digital Submission: If issued with a digital seal, simply upload your file to our system.

  • Mailing Physical Documents: Send the original or a certified copy to:
    CFG Apostille
    1615 Bay Head Rd #120
    Annapolis, MD 21409, USA

5. Legalization at the U.S. Department of State

After receiving your document, CFG Apostille submits it to the U.S. Department of State – Office of Authentications for official legalization.

Mailing Address:
U.S. Department of State
Office of Authentications
600 19th Street NW, 2nd Floor
Washington, D.C. 20522-0022

Once authenticated, the legalized document is returned to CFG Apostille for final processing.

6. Expedited Legalization Services

CFG Apostille provides accelerated processing, completing legalization in 9 business days.
Standard State Department processing may take 2–3 weeks, but our expedited handling ensures prompt completion for time-sensitive international trade requirements.

Current pricing for expedited service is available on our website.

7. Delivery of the Legalized Certificate

After legalization, we return the completed certificate to you:

  • Digital submissions are delivered electronically.

  • Physical documents are mailed back to your provided address.

You’ll receive tracking information and confirmation once your document is dispatched.

8. Submitting the Legalized CFG to Malaysian Authorities

Once legalized, the FDA certificate can be presented to the relevant Malaysian authorities—such as regulatory bodies, import offices, or health agencies—to support import or registration of your products.
It is recommended to confirm if translation or additional documentation is required before submission.
