There are a number of requirements for opening a pharmacy in my location. One of the basic requirements is that one of the owners should be a licensed pharmacist. The pharmacist also need to apply for registration with the Pharmacy and Poisons Board of Hong Kong.

You are very correct with that assessment because whenever requirement that is set up for opening such business in United States of America is different from what is obtainable in Nigeria
But health affects all humans the same way. I feel the criteria for health related professions and businesses should be standardized and kept the same across the whole world whatever the location is.

Yeah, I think there are some medical associations in every country that always grant permission for that. So you need to go to them and find out the rules.

This is very correct because you will always have to work by the principles of that association so that they will always have your back if there is any problem.

Yeah, some time ago in this part of the world a drastic action was taken against people operating medical stores illegally. Their stores were closed because they didn't obtain the necessary permissions.

In my country, you would need licensing from the agency that oversees food and drug administration. And you must register your pharmacy as a company before you are granted license.

Here in my country, there are some requirements that you need to meet up to if truly you want to have a pharmacy shop.
The person must have a certificate. It is either he learns about pharmacy or he studies it at the University.
There are other requirements that I can't remember.
What about yours?
To start running a pharmacy business in my country, you must be a pharmacy yourself or hire a qualified pharmacy to start with, you also need to register your company under the corporate body and also under the pharmacist council .

Initially, the very first thing that you must have is license and you may need to apply for that. You may need to fulfil other requirements as well. You may need to get a permit from the government.

You are right because it is about our health so it is very important for them to be licensed before we buy from them and that is why people do not buy from companies that are not licensed so that we will not take the wrong drug
