MIA approval requires MAA is in the process, what does that mean in the process, does that mean the submission?

You are correct that in the UK, a Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA) needs to be in progress or submitted for an applicant to be granted a Manufacturing and Importation Authorization (MIA).

"In the process" generally means that the applicant has started the MAA submission process with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), which is the UK's regulatory agency responsible for assessing and authorizing medicines. Typically, the MHRA will review the MAA and inspect the manufacturing facility before granting the MIA.

Therefore, to obtain an MIA, the applicant needs to demonstrate that they have an ongoing MAA submission process with the MHRA, which can involve submitting the application, providing additional information, and responding to any questions or requests from the agency. Once the MAA is deemed acceptable by the MHRA, the agency can then proceed with the inspection of the manufacturing facility and the granting of the MIA.
