    What are the Implications

    Whether you are renewing or submitting new registration, your medical devices and guidelines need to meet these new guidelines. Even if your renewals (every 5 years required by NMPA) have no changes, you still have to prove that your originally approved products can meet the new guidelines. As a result, your originally approved products will still need to go through local type testing to show that you are current with the new guidelines. ChinaMed Device, LLC has test engineers at NMPA testing centers to help you assess and expedite your type testing needs and shorten your renewal or new approval time. info@ChinaMedDevice.com.

    NMPA announced the “2019 Medical Device Registration Guidelines Revision Plan” on February 25, in which 86 medical devices, IVDs and manufacturing methods are included.

    Revision of more than 300 industry standards for medical devices, IVDs and quality systems could be expected by the end of 2020, NMPA announced in January 2018.
