Questão jurídica principal
Whether direct delivery of medicines from a warehouse in Germany may satisfy Swiss import/wholesale permit requirements.
Decisão extraída
A foreign warehouse is not automatically excluded; a permit may not be refused solely because delivery is made directly from the German warehouse if Swiss authorities can effectively supervise the operation.
Fundamentação extraída
Swiss law does not expressly require a warehouse in Switzerland. The decisive point is whether the Swiss authorities can inspect the storage and distribution facilities and verify GDP compliance. If practical cooperation with the competent foreign authorities allows adequate supervision, refusing the permit solely for foreign location is unlawful.
