After obtaining Class B medical device registration under the Hong Kong MDACS, there are several important points and ongoing obligations you should be aware of to maintain compliance and ensure smooth market access:
Keep your device listing information up to date with the Medical Device Division (MDD).
Notify MDD promptly of any changes to the device, manufacturer, or Local Responsible Person (LRP).
Implement a post-market surveillance system to monitor device performance and safety in the Hong Kong market.
Report any adverse incidents or complaints related to the device to MDD within specified timelines.
Although MDACS registration itself does not require annual renewal, you must ensure the registration remains valid by complying with any updates or notices from MDD.
Some devices may require periodic renewal or confirmation of continued compliance—confirm with MDD if applicable.
Continue to ensure that all labeling, packaging, and instructions for use meet MDACS requirements and local language guidelines.
Be prepared for possible inspections or audits by Hong Kong authorities to verify compliance with MDACS and QMS requirements.
Maintain comprehensive and organized documentation.
Ensure all marketing materials and claims about the device comply with local laws and do not mislead consumers.
The LRP must remain vigilant and act as the official contact point for any regulatory communication, recalls, or safety actions.
