Thai FDA Ramps Up Documentation Requirements for General Medical Devices
Published October 9, 2020
With the announcement of The Regulations and Conditions Of Maintaining Technical Documents For Safety And Effectiveness Of The Medical Device, the Thai FDA has begun requiring the local medical device License Holder to provide upon request technical documents for any registered device. As the registration process for most General Medical Devices (all but 10 device types fit into this category) does not involve technical documents, this new requirement will impact most medical devices.
License Holders will be expected to produce the following documents upon request from the Thai FDA:
