Medical device registration in Malaysia is regulated by the Medical Device Authority (MDA). Section 2 of the Medical Device Act 2012 (Act 737) also defines medical devices to be in vitro reagents intended for the purpose of disinfection of medical devices.
TECOLAB assists customers with their Establishment License Application, Product Classification and Grouping, Technical Document Preparation and Reliable Customer Product Registration Follow Ups.
Step 1: Good Distribution Practice for Medical Devices (GDPMD) Consultation

GDPMD Certification is a mandatory requirement for the assurance of quality, safety and performance of medical devices during all stages of the medical device supply chain.

TECOLAB provides customers with GDPMD consultation prior to medical device registration.

Step 2: Establishment License Application

Establishment License is a mandatory requirement by law, for the placement of medical devices in the Malaysian market. There are four types of Establishment License namely:

  1.  License for Manufacturer
  2. License for Authorized Representative
  3. License for Importer
  4. License for Distributor

TECOLAB assist customers with their Establishment License Applications.

Step 3: Medical Device Classification and Grouping

Your medical device may fall under one of these classes:

  • Class A: Low Risk Level
  • Class B: Low-Moderate Risk Level
  • Class C: High-Moderate Risk Level
  • Class D: High Risk Level

Apart from classification, medical devices are also generally grouped into the following categories:

  • Single
  • Family
  • System
  • Set

TECOLAB readily assist customers to classify and group their products into the appropriate classes and grouping according to the product nature of application and risk evaluation.

Step 4: Conformity assessment with a Conformity Assessment Body (CAB)

According to the Medical Device Authority (MDA), conformity assessments of medical devices are done to ensure the safety and good performances of these medical devices. The elements of a conformity assessment include:

  • Conformity assessment of quality management system (QMS)
  • Conformity assessment of post-market surveillance system (PMS)
  • Conformity assessment of technical documentation
  • Declaration of conformity (DoC)

Note: The level of conformity assessment varies according to the risk associated to the medical device.

Ideally, there are two types of medical device assessment namely:

  1. Full Conformity Assessment (For Medical Devices Approved in Non-Recognized Countries by MDA)
  2. Product Verification (For Medical Devices Approved in Recognized Countries by MDA; Australia, European Union, Canada, United States of America, and Japan.)

TECOLAB guides customers in preparing the technical documents required for product conformity assessment.
