ANVISA Medical Device Registration in Brazil
Brazil has emerged as one of the fastest-growing markets for medical devices in Latin America. To market and sell medical devices in Brazil, manufacturers must comply with the strict regulations of ANVISA (Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária), the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency.
The ANVISA Medical Device Registration ensures that your products meet stringent safety, quality, and performance requirements before entering the market. Depending on the device classification, manufacturers need to follow different registration pathways, ranging from simplified notification to detailed technical dossiers.

frequently asked questions
Why is ANVISA registration necessary to sell medical devices in Brazil?
ANVISA registration ensures that your medical device meets Brazil’s strict safety, quality, and performance standards. Without registration, you cannot legally market or distribute medical devices in the country. It helps protect patient health and ensures compliance with local regulations.
Do foreign manufacturers need a local representative to register their device in Brazil?
Yes. Foreign manufacturers must appoint a Brazilian Registration Holder (BRH) to represent them in Brazil. The BRH handles the submission of documents, maintains registration certificates, and ensures ongoing compliance with ANVISA regulations.
What is the role of INMETRO certification in medical device registration?
For certain devices, especially those involving electrical safety like ECG machines, INMETRO certification is required. It confirms that the product meets Brazilian technical and safety standards, ensuring regulatory approval alongside ANVISA registration.
