Swissmedical Switzerland Medical Device Registration
Switzerland, with its nearly 9 million population, is recognized for its robust medical technology sector, bolstered by strong fundamentals and political stability. The Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between the European Union and Switzerland has been impacted by the EU's new medical devices (MDR) and IVDs (IVDR) regulations, necessitating separate compliance for devices intended for the Swiss market through the Medical Devices Ordinance (MDO).
Meeting Swissmedic Requirements
Regulatory Authority
Pure Global can assist with Switzerland medical device registration, ensuring Swissmedic approval to sell in the Swiss market.
Classification
The classification of medical devices in Switzerland follows the EU's system, where it is based on the device's intended use and associated risk. This classification determines the specific registration and compliance requirements with Swissmedic.
Key Requirements
To market medical devices in Switzerland, manufacturers outside of Switzerland must:
- Appoint a Swiss Authorized Representative (Swiss AR or CH REP) to act on their behalf. The Swiss AR is responsible for ensuring the manufacturer reports vigilance to Swissmedic.
- Ensure pre-market registration and compliance with the MDO, facilitated by the Swiss AR.
