HSA Singapore Medical Device Registration

Singapore's strategic position as a commercial hub in Asia presents lucrative opportunities for overseas medical device manufacturers. Class B, C, and D devices must be registered with Singapore's Health Sciences Authority (HSA) before distribution, but authorizations in some other markets can expedite the registration.

Pure Global simplifies the process with AI workflows that accelerate HSA submission preparation, along with local support and representation, all for a flat annual fee.
