The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) announced the new fees for Fiscal Year 2024 (FY24) in the last week, on August 9th, 2023.

Who Must Register, List and Pay the Fee?
Establishments that are involved in the production and distribution of medical devices intended for commercial distribution in the United States (U.S.), including those that are imported for export only, are required to register annually with the FDA. Most establishments that are required to register are also required to list the devices and the activities performed on those devices at that establishment (Title 21 CFR Part 807).

Annual Establishment Registration Fee:From: USD 6,493.00.
