Registration of medical devices
Proper registration of medical devices is a prerequisite for the sale, circulation and use of medical devices in Ukraine. This process is not simple and requires in-depth knowledge of regulatory acts, legislation and special procedures.
At the same time, even the smallest mistakes or non-compliance with requirements can lead to serious consequences for a company dealing with medical devices. That is why it is important to contact professional lawyers who can minimize risks and ensure a smooth registration procedure.
What is medical device registration?
Registration of medical devices is an official recognition of their compliance with national safety and efficacy standards. During the registration process, the company must provide the regulatory authorities with all necessary documents confirming the quality, safety and efficacy of the products. In Ukraine, this procedure is controlled by the State Service for Medicines and Drug Control (State Service).
This process is mandatory for all medical devices sold or used in Ukraine, including imported and locally produced products. Without registration, medical devices cannot be placed on the market. It is as important as obtaining a license to manufacture medicines in Ukraine.
Types of medical devices subject to registration
All medical devices used for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases are subject to registration: medical equipment, instruments, devices, materials, software, implants, reagents, calibrators, and control materials. Medical devices for in vitro diagnostics, active medical devices, and devices used for research are also subject to registration.
Medical device registration process
It seems that the process of registering medical devices is simple: you submit the necessary documents and receive permits. However, in reality, everything is much more complicated. Making a decision on registration depends on many factors, ranging from the type of medical device to its impact on people’s health. Here are the main stages of this process:
- Preparation of documents. This is the most important part of the procedure. You need to collect all the documents that confirm the quality and safety of your product, including certificates of conformity, test reports, technical documentation, etc. At each stage, you need to be as careful as possible to avoid mistakes that may lead to a refusal to register.
- Submission of the application. After preparing the necessary documents, the application is submitted to the State Medical Service. It is important to note that some documents may be checked in several instances, and therefore, the time for verification may vary.
- Conformity assessment. After submitting the application, the State Medical Service specialists assess the compliance of the medical product with the requirements established by national and international standards.
- Issuance of the certificate. If all the documents meet the requirements, the medical product receives a registration certificate, which gives the right to its circulation on the market.
Registration fee
The cost of registering a medical device consists of official fees (state duty, examination fee) and the cost of preparing documentation. Additional costs may include translation of documents, laboratory testing and conformity assessment. The exact cost depends on the risk class of the medical device and the complexity of the procedure.
Registration deadlines
The standard period for registering a medical product is:
- Preparation of documentation: 2-4 weeks
- Document review: 3-5 months
- Certificate issuance: up to 10 business days
