6 steps to global markets
DESCRIPTION
As you start to map out your global strategy beyond the US, Canada and Europe, there are six key steps to follow and multiple regulations to consider. Harmonization has increased in recent years, yet most countries still maintain distinct medical device regulatory systems. Careful analysis on a market-by-market basis will help you to fully realize compliance requirements affecting a particular market. Explore these six steps as we reveal insights into the unique medical device regulations affecting markets in Russia, Brazil, Japan, China, and India.TRANSCRIPT

Appoint a "Legal Agent and After Sales Agent" to co-ordinate pp g g gCFDA device registration.
• Agents must be legal residents of China or maintain local business presences in China.
• Legal Agent interacts with the CFDA during the device registration process and assists in obtaining registration renewal every four yearsprocess and assists in obtaining registration renewal every four years
• After Sales Agent is responsible for reporting all incidents related to the device to Chinese authorities following registration and

Proof of registration in country of origin is required Thi i diff tProof of registration in country of origin is required. This is different compared to U.S and
EU, where device approvals and
registration are strictly g ybased on the
evaluation carried out by FDA or Notified
Bodies.
www.intertek.com17
Step 5: Registration Requirements
Submit the device to CFDA for testing. Testing is carried out by the CFDA g g yMedical Device Quality Supervision and Inspection Center.
Clinical trials conducted in China could be required for devices that do not have regulatory approval in another country, and for high-risk devices.
Except for new implant products and in-vitro reagents, foreign clinical d t tl t d d l l i ti ti ld b t d idata are mostly accepted and local investigation could be exempted in most circumstances.

Step 5: Registration Requirements
China Compulsory Certification (CCC) is applicable to some medical p y ( ) ppdevices with electrical components for safety conformity.
If the device requires CCC Mark Certification, it must be obtained through testing the device in labs in China. An on-site audit of the legal manufacturer is also required.
