Permission to Import a New Medical Device (MD 26/27)
The market for medical devices in India is huge and has been growing steadily in recent years. A manufacturer from India must have both the registration certificate and the import license to import any medical devices into India. If a company wants to import its medical devices into India but does not already have a registered office, then a CDSCO-approved Indian agent must be appointed.
In India, registration and a license are required for the import of medical devices. The approval of a competent body is necessary for the import of medical devices into India. The primary goal of device imports into India is to supply safe, effective, and high-quality products that comply with the highest standard of scientific development and regulatory processes. Operon Strategist provides high-quality consultancy services for medical device import licenses.
