Why is Medical Device Registration Important in Russia?

Russia follows a harmonized regulatory framework under the EAEU, ensuring the safety, quality, and efficacy of medical devices. This framework involves: 

  • Device Classification: Medical devices are classified into Class 1, Class 2a, Class 2b, and Class 3 based on risk. 
  • Clinical Trials and Local Testing: Many devices require local clinical evaluations and testing to ensure compliance with Russian and EAEU standards. 
  • QMS Inspections: Compliance with Quality Management System (QMS) requirements, as outlined in EAEU Regulation 106, is mandatory for higher-risk devices.
