Our Initial Importer service is beyond the broad regulatory requirements for foreign manufacturers, and we will help you optimize your business for entrance into the US market.
What is an “Initial Importer” defined by the FDA?
According to the FDA definition, an initial Importer is any importer who furthers the marketing of a device from a foreign manufacturer to the person who makes final delivery or sale of the device to the ultimate consumer or user, but does not repackage, or otherwise change the container, wrapper, or labeling of the device or device package.
Why do you need an initial importer?
It is governed by the Code of Federal Regulations for importers to register their facility (21 CFR 807. 20) and to be identified by the manufacturers (21 CFR 807.41).
What are the requirements to be an Initial Importer?
The primary responsibility of the initial importer;
Importers are also required to register with FDA and pay the annual registration fees (as are manufacturers).
The initial importer must have a physical address (business that the FDA can visit and perform a site audit directly) in the United States staffed by individuals responsible for ensuring the compliance of imported devices with all applicable FDA laws and regulations.
Under medical device reporting regulations put forth by the FDA, an initial importer is required to report (Medical Device Reporting, Corrections and Removal Reports...etc) incidents in which a device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury as well as certain malfunctions.
Through the initial importer’s FDA registration, the FDA requires the importer to be accountable for reporting adverse events, recalls, customer complaints, and any other postmarket investigation activities regarding the device.
All medical devices imported into the United States must meet the regulatory requirements of both the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and FDA.
Management of all these complicated procedures must be handled by the initial importer.
