How Indian Pharma Professionals Are Contributing to the United States' Pharma And Biotech Growth

SiZA Global2 May 20268 min readReviewed by SiZA Global Documentation Review Team

Indian pharma talent is supporting drug development, quality and healthcare innovation.

Why US pharmaceutical employers keep recruiting Indian scientists and pharmacists

Indian pharma scientists, formulation specialists, regulatory affairs professionals and clinical research staff hold a meaningful share of mid and senior roles inside Pfizer, Merck, J&J, Bristol-Myers Squibb, AbbVie, Moderna, the larger CROs (IQVIA, Parexel, Syneos) and the Indian-headquartered firms with US operations (Sun, Dr. Reddy's, Cipla USA, Lupin, Aurobindo USA). The H-1B, L-1, EB-2 and EB-3 routes all stay active in this sector.

MEA apostille on the Bachelor of Pharmacy, M.Pharm, PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences and the pharmacy council registration certificates is the standard. Translation rarely applies because the documents are in English. State pharmacy board registration in the US is a separate parallel process, but the apostilled Indian credentials are the starting point.

What this kind of file usually carries

  • B.Pharm, M.Pharm or PhD degree, with all marksheets
  • Pharmacy Council of India and state pharmacy council registration
  • Experience letters from each pharma employer
  • Marriage certificate and birth certificates of children
  • Police clearance certificate
  • Passport with at least twenty-four months validity

Where SiZA Global fits in this preparation

We handle the India side: MEA apostille on the degrees, marksheets, pharmacy council registrations, marriage certificate, birth certificates and PCC, certified translation if any document is not in English and tracked return of originals. The H-1B, L-1, EB-2 or EB-3 decision, the FPGEC or state board examination and the US employer sponsorship belong to the US side. We do not promise outcomes there.
