Hi

I am wondering if any of you can help me in getting/finding the regulations or harmonized regulatory agency for marketing medical devices/IVDs in CIS countries.

I hardly find information in web searches.

Re: Medical Device Regulations for CIS Countries

I know where you can get the info, but it isn't cheap. A website called clinivation has their "worldview" regulatory intelligence program where you can buy a dossier of info, generally for $800USD or so. Which states in particular are you looking for? If I knew that I could let you know some more specifics.

My understanding of this is that for the most part most CIS countries (Assuming you mean the commonwealth of indiependent states) adhere to one of two major regulatory models; the EU requirements or those of Russia. It just depends on where their allegiances are for that day.

If you have done business over there before you probably already know that a little "grease" is always a lot more effective at opening the market than some completed forms or reports.......

Thanks for the info. I understand what you meant, however I am keen to know the requirement that I can apply in case of any eventual need arises.

There have been a huge business need to CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) countries for both Therapeutic & device products and it would become a need for me to know the regulations.

I checked at Clinivation's 'Worldview' and it does not list any of the Commonwealth of Independent States regulatory requirement. I hardly find information about any regulatory agency for these countries.

I am looking for informations particularly to the countries Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. Helpful, if some information can be shared.

Re: Medical Device Regulations for CIS Countries

The certification for CIS countries is quite difficult issue. First of all, you should follow to National Legislation of the country. Most of CIS countries habit certification structure based on Russian System. For example, in each country you have to go through following Bodies:
1. Ministry of Health. Registration is required
2. Hygenic Department, if any
3. Certification Body for Medical Devices.
If you have more questions, pls do not hesitate and contact with me +74959203829
