CDMR Canada Medical Device Registration
Canada, with its population of over 38 million, relies heavily on imports to meet approximately 70% of its domestic demand for medical devices. The country's medical device sector is witnessing a surge in demand, fueled by an increase in chronic diseases and an aging population. This presents a significant opportunity for global medical device manufacturers.

Classification
Canada categorizes medical devices into four classes based on the risk they pose. This classification influences the regulatory requirements for approval:
- Class I devices, considered low risk, require a Medical Device Establishment License (MDEL) for manufacturers or importers.
- Class II, III, and IV devices, representing higher risk levels, must obtain a Canadian Medical Device License (MDL) and undergo certification through the Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP).
Key Requirements
The path to market involves:
- Classifying your product correctly.
- Obtaining an MDEL for Class I devices or an MDL for Classes II to IV devices.
- Undergoing MDSAP certification for Class II to IV devices.
Foreign manufacturers benefit from not having to appoint a local license holder, streamlining the process for market entry.
