Medical Device Regulation in Russia

The Russian medical device market offers great potential for foreign companies. However, the process of registering and marketing medical products in Russia is complex and requires specialized knowledge.

Passarini Group, with its extensive experience in international regulation, offers a comprehensive set of services to help companies efficiently and safely access the Russian market.

The regulatory agency responsible for approving medical devices in Russia is Roszdravnadzor (RZN).

Roszdravnadzor is the Federal Service for Surveillance in Healthcare and Consumer Rights Protection of the Russian Federation. It is responsible for regulating a wide range of health-related activities, including the registration and control of drugs, medical products, and cosmetics.

The regulatory process involves a detailed evaluation of each device, considering factors such as composition, functionality, associated risks, and clinical effectiveness. Medical devices are classified into different categories, depending on the degree of risk they pose to patients and users.
