This video gives medical device manufacturers a clear roadmap for entering Saudi Arabia, he largest medical-device market in the Middle East. With a population of more than 35 million, universal healthcare coverage, and an ambitious Vision 2030 agenda, the Kingdom is investing heavily in advanced technologies to transform its healthcare system. The market is currently valued at USD 2.11 billion (2023) and is expected to grow at 6% CAGR through 2032, making Saudi Arabia a priority launch destination for global innovators.

Topics covered in this video include:

  • Saudi Arabia’s medical-device market size, growth trends, and healthcare investment drivers
  • SFDA’s risk-based classification system (Classes A–C) and its impact on regulatory requirements
  • Key obligations for overseas manufacturers entering the Kingdom
  • The role of an Authorized Representative (AR) in achieving and maintaining compliance
  • How Pure Global streamlines classification, technical-file preparation, and post-market reporting
  • The strategic benefits of positioning Saudi Arabia as a launch market within the broader MENA region

Regulatory oversight is managed by the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), which enforces strict, risk-based rules to ensure safety and effectiveness. Devices are classified into Classes A, B, and C, with higher-risk products subject to more stringent scrutiny and documentation. For foreign manufacturers, understanding these classifications and preparing compliant technical files are essential first steps toward successful market entry.
