Hello everyone 
Need your help to understand medical device regulation in African countries?
1. Is there any collaboration between national medicines regulatory authorities available in African countries apart from ZAZIBONA?
2. If you can indicate if a regulatory affairs environment is establish and enforced that is not related to the one in South Africa (SAHPRA, formerly MCC) for the applicable countries: Angola, Botswana, Democratic republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe?
3. What are all the African countries that follow South African medial device regulations (SAHPRA)?
Thanks in advance,
Mallappa

Democratic Republic of Congo is very informal to regulate the product, you should consider submitting a formal enquiry to ask about the requirements for your product.
Kenya, is a listing in the PPB and quite fast. The IVDs will require registration soon.
Namibia only regulates medicines up today, but you can ask for a formal statement declaring that your product is not regulated.
I hope this helps.
