To apply for Class C medical device registration with Singapore HSA (Health Sciences Authority), you need to follow these steps:

  1. Determine the Classification:

    • Verify if your medical device falls under Class C based on its risk profile. Class C devices are higher-risk and usually require more extensive documentation.
  2. Establish a Local Authorized Representative (LAR):

    • If you're a foreign manufacturer, you need to appoint a Local Authorized Representative (LAR) in Singapore to submit the registration on your behalf.
  3. Prepare the Necessary Documentation:

    • Device Description: Provide a detailed description of the device, including its intended use, indications, and classification.
    • Manufacturing Information: Submit details about the manufacturing process, quality management systems (e.g., ISO 13485 certification), and the facility.
    • Risk Management: Provide a risk analysis report following ISO 14971 standards.
    • Clinical Evidence: Submit clinical data supporting the safety and performance of the device. This could include clinical trials or equivalence data.
    • Labelling and Instructions: Include the product labeling, instructions for use, and any other necessary documents in accordance with HSA's requirements.
    • Declaration of Conformity: Provide a declaration that the device complies with relevant regulatory standards.
  4. Prepare the Application in the HSA's Online System:

    • Create an account on HSA’s online registration system (e.g., the Medical Device Branch portal).
    • Complete the application by uploading the necessary documents and information.
  5. Submit the Application:

    • Submit the application and pay the associated fees. The HSA will review the submission for completeness and compliance with the regulatory requirements.
  6. Review by HSA:

    • HSA will evaluate the documentation and may request additional information. The evaluation process may include an inspection of the manufacturing site and a review of clinical data.
  7. Approval and Registration:

    • If the application is successful, HSA will issue the registration for the medical device, which will be valid for 5 years.
  8. Post-Market Requirements:

    • After approval, the device is subject to post-market surveillance. You will need to report any adverse events or safety concerns and keep HSA updated on any changes to the device or its manufacturing process.
