Here’s a step-by-step guide on how and where to apply:
1. Where to Apply
- MeDC@St Portal: All applications for medical device registration with MDA are submitted through the MeDC@St (Medical Device Centralized Online Application System). This platform allows for submission, tracking, and management of medical device registration applications.
- Portal Link: MeDC@St Portal
2. Steps to Apply for Class C Medical Device Registration
Step 1: Register on the MeDC@St Portal
- Access the MeDC@St portal and create an account if you haven’t already. Manufacturers or their local authorized representatives (for foreign manufacturers) need to register with their details.
- For foreign manufacturers, a local authorized representative must handle the account setup and submissions on behalf of the manufacturer.
Step 2: Prepare Required Documentation
- Assemble all necessary documents, including:
- Technical File: Device description, design and manufacturing information, risk management, and validation reports.
- Clinical Evaluation Report (CER): Evidence demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of the device.
- Quality Management System (QMS) Documentation: ISO 13485 certification and other quality assurance documents.
- Labeling and Instructions for Use (IFU).
- Declaration of Conformity (DoC).
- Application Form (MD-1).
Step 3: Complete the Application Form (MD-1)
- Log into the MeDC@St portal, select the registration category (Class C), and complete the MD-1 Application Form.
- Upload all required documents according to the MDA’s guidelines. Ensure files are formatted as required (usually PDF) and organized for easy access.
Step 4: Pay Application Fees
- Pay the registration fees directly through the MeDC@St portal. Fees for Class C devices range from RM 1,500 to RM 2,000 (approximately $320 to $430 USD). The exact fee will be displayed in the application form section.
Step 5: Submit the Application
- Review all entries and document uploads for accuracy. Once you’re ready, submit the completed application.
- You can track the progress and status of your application directly through the MeDC@St portal.
Step 6: Respond to MDA Queries
- During the review process, MDA may request additional information or clarification. Ensure that you respond promptly to avoid delays.
Step 7: Approval and Certificate Issuance
- Once approved, the MDA will issue a Certificate of Registration, allowing the device to be marketed in Malaysia.
Additional Information
- Post-Market Surveillance: After approval, set up post-market surveillance as required by MDA, including monitoring for adverse events and regular reporting.
- Documentation Updates: The MDA guidelines and fee structures are subject to change, so always refer to the latest information available on the MDA or MeDC@St websites.
