Medical Product Registration in Singapore
The Singaporean medical regulatory system is generally industry-friendly. The government there, however, is currently trying to increase safety standards by expanding the range of medical products it reviews and approves.
The Singaporean regulator of medical devices and pharmaceuticals is the Health Sciences Authority (HSA). Until recently, only pharmaceuticals needed HSA approval, not medical devices. However, the recent Singapore Health Products Act of 2007 will require HSA product approval for all medical devices starting in 2011.
The Therapuetic Products Division of the HSA is responsible for reviewing and approving pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Under this division, there is a Pharmaceuticals & Biologics Branch and a Medical Device Branch.
