AF Pharma as FDA US Agent for Medical Devices

Expanding your medical device company's presence in the international market is an exciting venture. With the United States being a key market for medical device distribution, it's crucial to navigate the regulatory landscape effectively. That's where having an experienced US agent becomes essential. AF Pharma is here to offer its expertise as your trusted US agent, ensuring compliance with the rigorous standards set by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In this blog post, we'll explore the role of an FDA US agent, the benefits of partnering with AF Pharma, and the necessary steps to establish a successful collaboration.


What Does an FDA US Agent Do?

For medical device companies based outside the USA, it is a regulatory requirement to have an FDA US agent when distributing devices in the US market. The FDA US agent acts as a liaison between your company and the FDA, facilitating effective communication and streamlining regulatory processes. This includes addressing inquiries about devices exported to the US, scheduling FDA inspections, and ensuring compliance with FDA regulations. The US agent's responsibilities are akin to those of an European Authorized Representative, UK Responsible Person, or Swiss Authorized Representative. It's important to note that the US agent's contact information is included in your FDA Establishment Registration record, not in your device labeling.
