Your Product's Passport: Unlocking Global Sales with an FSC

from Medical Device Global Market Access

In this episode, we demystify the Free Sales Certificate (FSC), a critical document for medical device and IVD manufacturers aiming for international expansion. We explore what an FSC is, why it's a mandatory requirement for registration in many countries across Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, and how it serves as proof of regulatory compliance in your home market. The host explains who issues these certificates in key regions like the EU and the US, and discusses recent changes under the EU MDR that impact all manufacturers. Key Questions: • What is a Free Sales Certificate and why is it essential for exporting medical devices? • How does an FSC accelerate market entry in foreign countries? • Which global regions most commonly demand an FSC for product registration? • What is the difference between an FSC from the EU and a CFG from the US FDA? • Who is responsible for obtaining an FSC for a non-EU manufacturer? • How has the EU's Medical Device Regulation (MDR) impacted the FSC application process? • Can legacy devices still use old certificate formats? Ready to turn these insights into your competitive edge? Pure Global’s regulatory experts guide MedTech companies through every step of 30+ markets worldwide.
