frequently asked questions
What is CDSCO registration and why do foreign manufacturers need a medical device import license for India?
CDSCO stands for the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization, which is India’s national regulatory authority for medical devices and pharmaceuticals. Any foreign manufacturer looking to sell products in India must obtain a specific medical device import license india under Form MD-15. This process requires a complete technical review of the manufacturing site’s quality systems and product safety data to ensure full alignment with India’s Medical Device Rules 2017.
Can an Egyptian medical device company apply for a CDSCO license directly?
No, an offshore manufacturing plant cannot apply directly to the Indian regulatory portal. To initiate cdsco registration, you must legally appoint an Authorized Indian Agent (AIA). The AIA must be a physical corporate entity residing in India, holding a valid local wholesale drug license, and will act as your legal representative to manage all portal uploads, technical clarifications, and post-market tracking.
What is the first step in the process for importing medical devices into India?
The absolute first step is a precise device classification assessment. Under CDSCO regulations, medical devices are divided into four distinct risk tiers: Class A (low risk) through Class D (high risk). Your risk tier dictates the exact scope of technical documentation required, the official government application fees, and whether your facility will be subject to a remote physical quality audit before cdsco approval is granted.
