The HPC products must be hand carried back to Ireland immediately by a trained Courier for immediate Transplant. We require specialised courier providers that are compliant with Directive 2004/23/EC of the European Parliament & of the Council and any subsequent directives, World Marrow Donor Association (WMDA) courier requirements and IATA regulations.
