MHRA publishes November 2026 list of new UK manufacturer and wholesale dealer licences

🇬🇧 MHRA · Tue 10 Nov 2026

The regulator has replaced October's file with a November 2026 CSV listing sites granted manufacturing or wholesale dealer licences, a monthly resource for checking supply-chain partners.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) updated its guidance page on 10 November 2026, swapping the October 2026 file for a November 2026 version. The new document is a CSV of 11.8 KB, also available to view online.

According to the agency, the list covers all new manufacturer or wholesale dealer licences it granted over the previous year. The page is refreshed every month, so each edition gives a rolling picture of recently licensed sites in the UK.

The page was first published on 4 February 2015. Its update history shows a largely monthly cadence in recent years, although the log is not entirely uniform. For instance, entries for 2026 run from January through October, and the source notes earlier changes such as a May 2023 update to a CSV covering terminated, revoked and cancelled licences, and a switch from a PDF to a more accessible file in August 2020.

The source does not name any individual sites or companies in its text, and the listing itself is only available in the attached file. Readers will need to open the CSV for details of specific licence holders.

As general context, a manufacturer's licence authorises the manufacture or import of medicines, while a wholesale dealer's licence covers their distribution in the UK.

What it means for your team

  • QA teams can cross-check the November 2026 CSV against approved-supplier lists for contract manufacturers, importers and distributors.
  • Because each edition covers the previous year, teams verifying a recently onboarded partner can consult the latest file rather than waiting for a later release.
  • The listing is not a substitute for checking a partner's full licence status and scope directly; the source text does not describe the CSV's data fields.
