The API facility fee for 2013 for domestic facilities is $26,458, while the API facility fee for foreign facilities is $41,458. The FDF facility fee is owed by each person that owns a facility which is identified or is intended to be identified, in at least one generic drug submission that is pending or approved, to produce one or more finished dosage forms of the human generic drug. The FDF facility fee for 2013 for domestic facilities is $175,389, and the FDF facility fee for foreign facilities is $190,389. Both API and FDF fees are due on March 4, 2013.
