Medical Device Listing
Fee: $449 Each Product
(Discount On Multiple Products)
Most medical device establishments required to register with FDA must also identify to FDA the devices they have in commercial distribution including devices produced exclusively for export. This process is known as ‘medical device listing’ and is a means of keeping FDA advised of the generic category(s) of devices an establishment is manufacturing or marketing. The regulations for medical device listing are provided in 21 CFR 807.
Each generic category is represented by a separate classification regulation found in Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 862-892 or FDA assigned device name. Each regulation number or device name is associated with one or more product codes. Regulation numbers with more than one product code identifies the product in further detail. For example, “Manual Surgical Instruments for General Use,” 21 CFR 878.4800, contains several product codes including GAB (disposable suturing needle), GDX (scalpel), HTD (forceps) and HRQ (hemostat).
Listing of a medical device is not approval of the establishment or a device by FDA. Unless exempt, premarketing clearance is required before a device can be marketed (placed into commercial distribution) in the U.S.
All device types classified as exempt from the Premarket Notification 510(k) requirements are subject to the limitations of exemptions. Limitations of device exemptions are found in the device classification chapters in 21 CFR xxx.9, where xxx is replaced with Parts 862-892 (e.g., 862.9, 864.9, etc.). Please be aware that it is your responsibility to ensure that you meet the exemption criteria and that your device does not exceed the limitations of exemption. If your device exceeds the limitations of exemption, you must submit a 510(k) and receive a letter from FDA stating that your device may be commercially distributed in the U.S. prior to marketing your device.
While there is no separate fee for listing your device, device listing is completed as part of the annual registration process. Many device establishment types are subject to an annual registration fee.
